Detailed Description

Prospective analytical study which will be conducted at a private IVF center starting from june 2016.

the study will be recruited from both the fertility clinics and centers by fulfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria , all patient will be subjected to complete history taking medical and fertility history including previous induction or implantation failure.

patients will be randomized into two groups, group A will be treated with neupogen 30 international unit (IU) and group B will be treated with clexane 40mg and estrogen.

study procedure: ovaries were stimulated with standard protocol (long GnRH Agonist) or gonadotrophic releasing hormone (GnRH Antagonist, when at least 3 follicles achieved 18 mm diameter, Human chorionic gonadotrophic (hCG) (10000 IU) was administered for ovulation triggering, transvaginal oocyte retrieval was performed at 36-38 hours after injection of hCG . the oocytes were fertilized by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) method. the thickness of endometrium was evaluated on the day of oocyte retrieval and syringe which containing (300 mcg/1 ml) GCSF (neupogen) was infused slowly in the uterine cavity and after 5 days (before embryo transfer) endometrial thickness was evaluated again. all patients received oral and parenteral progesterone for luteal phase support.
