A Randomized Controlled Study of Different Trigger Modes of Antagonist Regimen in Patients With Low Ovarian Reserve

January 27, 2021 updated by: Li-jun Ding, Nanjing University
Assisted reproductive technology (ART), especially controlled ovarian stimulation (COS), significantly increased clinical pregnancy rates among infertile patients. However, about 9% to 24% of patients had poor ovarian response to gonadotropins (GNS) stimulation, which was called poor ovarian response (POR). In recent years, the diagnosis and treatment of patients with low fertility is the challenge for reproductive medicine. To better demonstrate the effectiveness of various interventions and distinguish the different subgroups of patients, 2016 POSEIDON (Patient-Oriented Strategies Encompassing Individualized Oocyte Number) standard changed low reaction into low prognosis of patient-oriented individual strategies to obtain eggs. For patients in group 3 and group 4 classified by POSEIDON, ovarian reserve function decline, follicular development desynchrony and low numbers of oocytes obtained lead to poor prognosis. In 2020, the prognosis based on Delphi method of assisted reproductive technology to treat low crowd diagnosis expert opinion in China recommended to give these patients conventional cosine solutions such as antagonist. In the first cycle, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) starting dose of 225 ~ 300 iu is suggested to achieve plenty of ovarian stimulation for standards and maximize the benefits of superovulation. Because of the particularity of luteal support in the antagonist regimen, it is of great clinical significance to explore the trigger mode and combination mode of luteal support in the antagonist regimen for patients with poor prognosis.
