Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of participants with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS)
Time Frame: every week for eight weeks
Diagnosis of OHSS was made according to the criteria of Golan et al.. Mild OHSS was classified as: Grade 1 (abdominal distension and discomfort) and Grade 2 (features of grade 1 plus nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea; ovaries are enlarged from 5 to 12 cm), moderate OHSS as Grade 3 (features of mild OHSS plus ultrasonic evidence of ascites), severe OHSS as Grade 4 (features of moderate OHSS plus evidence of ascites and/or hydrothorax and breathing difficulties) and Grade 5 (all of the above, plus change in the blood volume, increased blood viscosity due to hemoconcentration, coagulation abnormality, and diminished renal perfusion and function).
every week for eight weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures
