Ongoing pregnancies from early retrieval of prematurely developing antral follicles after DHEA supplementation
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2009) Soenmezer, Murat; Cil, Aylin Pelin; Oktay, Kutluk
Two patients with severely diminished ovarian reserve who were refractory to aggressive ovarian stimulation conceived with oocytes from prematurely developing antral follicles after dehydroepiandrosterone supplementation. The first patient had 11 and 14.5 mm, and the second patient had 13 mm antral follicles on cycle days 2 and 3 respectively. In the first case, no ovarian Stimulation was performed, while the second case received one dose of gonadotrophins with a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonist. Following very early human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) triggering on cycle day 5, when antral follicles reached 15 and 18.5 mm in the first case, and 19 mm in the second case, IVF intracytoplasmic sperm injection treatment resulted in pregnancies in both cases, which are currently ongoing at 35 and 14 weeks of gestation. The results in these patients show that pregnancy can be achieved in poor responder patients with prematurely developing antral follicles following early HCG triggering based on follicle size rather than cycle day, with no or minimal stimulation. Whether DHEA Supplementation had any impact on the success of these cycles remains to be determined.
