Role of Aromatase Inhibitor to Enhance Ovulation in Poor Responder During Induction With Short Antagonist Protocol in Cases of ICSI (AIPRICSI)

September 4, 2017 updated by: Reham Elkhateeb, Minia University

Role of Aromatase Inhibitor to Enhance Ovulation in Poor Responder During Induction With Short Antagonist Protocol in Cases of ICSI(Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) a Case Control Study

study the effect of aromataze inhibitor induction together with short stimulation protocol by gonadotrphin releasing hormon antagonist in cases that expected to be poor responder before ICSI

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a prospective randomized case control study will be conducted in Maternity hospital IVF unite Minia University after being approved by local ethical committee of obstetrics and gynecology department faculty of medicine, all study details will be explained to patients and informed consent will be obtained before inclusion in the study . enrolled patients will be randomized into two groups using simple randomization by sealed opaque envelops contain serial computer generated numbers Control group will receive HMG 300 IU daily start at first day of menses with follow up by trans vaginal ultrasound (TVUS ) when at least three follicles reach 14mm diameter GnRh antagonist given 0.1 ml continue follow up when at least three follicles reach 17mm in diameter ovum pickup will done under TVUS guide if less than three follicles cycle will be cancelled .

Study group will receive same management plus letrozole 2.5mg daily start at the first day of menses for 5 days and continue with same protocol

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of follicles per cycle that reach more than 17mm in diameter(quantity of ova)
Time Frame: day of HCG injection
measurement of the diameter of follicles by transvaginal ultrasoundand description of diameter in report
day of HCG injection
quality of ova
Time Frame: day of ovum pick up
After ova picking up examination of all ova under microscope and report how many ova reach metaphase II (quality) if more than 3 ova reach metaphase II considered satisfactory quality of ova in the current cycle
day of ovum pick up

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
pregnancy rate
Time Frame: 14 days after ovum pick up
presence of clinical pregnancy
14 days after ovum pick up
