Purpose.To improve success of in vitro fertilization (IVF), assisted reproductive technology (ART) experts addressed four questions. What is optimum oocytes number leading to highest live birth rate (LBR)? Are cohort size and embryo quality correlated? Does gonadotropin type affect oocyte yield? Should “freeze-all” policy be adopted in cycles with progesterone >1.5 ng/mL on day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration?Methods.Electronic database search included ten studies on which panel gave opinions for improving current practice in controlled ovarian stimulation for ART.Results.Strong association existed between retrieved oocytes number (RON) and LBRs. RON impacted likelihood of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Embryo euploidy decreased with age, not with cohort size. Progesterone > 1.5 ng/dL did not impair cycle outcomes in patients with high cohorts and showed disparate results on day of hCG administration.Conclusions.Ovarian stimulation should be designed to retrieve 10–15 oocytes/treatment. Accurate dosage, gonadotropin type, should be selected as per prediction markers of ovarian response. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist based protocols are advised to avoid OHSS. Cumulative pregnancy rate was most relevant pregnancy endpoint in ART. Cycles with serum progesterone ≥1.5 ng/dL on day of hCG administration should not adopt “freeze-all” policy. Further research is needed due to lack of data availability on progesterone threshold or index.

Introduction. Comparative analysis of urinary and recombinant gonadotropins is ongoing to improve the efficiency of assisted reproductive technology programs. Particular interest focused on the identification of individual groups of patients with maximal efficacy of using certain ovarian stimulation drugs in an assisted reproductive technology program.Objective. To review the application of Menopur Multidose 1200 IU for ovarian stimulation in assisted reproductive technology protocols with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH) or gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists (GnRH antagonists) in the current clinical practice.Materials and methods. The study retrospectively enrolled 4,080 women aged 20-43 years. Ovarian stimulation in the Assisted Reproductive Technology program was performed using the GnRH antagonist protocol in 65.8% of patients and the GnRH agonist protocol with Menopur Multidose 1200 IU with or without the additional Menopur 75 IU in 34.2% of women.Results. Clinical and laboratory data of the patients, stimulated cycle parameters, characteristics of the embryological stage, and results of the assisted reproductive technology program were analyzed. The frequency of obtaining degenerated oocytes did not exceed 5%. The relative number of blastocysts of good quality was 59.9%, while for patients in the older age group, the figure was 54.6. The average pregnancy rate in patients in the “Menopur Multidose 1200 IU p/k” group was 39.3%, which corresponds to high-performance indicators of the assisted reproductive technology program.Conclusions. Administration of highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) (Menopur Multidose 1200 IU) to stimulate ovarian function in patients of different ages is accompanied by an adequate number of mature oocytes, good quality blastocysts, and satisfactory clinical pregnancy rates. Thus, highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin is not inferior to recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone(r-FSH) concerning the efficacy of assisted reproductive technology programs.

ObjectiveTo estimate the prevalence of low-prognosis patients according to the POSEIDON criteria using real-world data.DesignMulticenter population-based cohort study.SettingsFertility clinics in Brazil, Turkey, and Vietnam.PatientsInfertile women undergoing assisted reproductive technology using standard ovarian stimulation with exogenous gonadotropins.InterventionsNone.Main outcome measuresPer-period prevalence rates of POSEIDON patients (overall, stratified by POSEIDON groups and by study center) and the effect of covariates on the probability that a patient be classified as “POSEIDON”.ResultsA total of 13,146 patients were included. POSEIDON patients represented 43.0% (95% confidence interval [CI] 42.0–43.7) of the studied population, and the prevalence rates varied across study centers (range: 38.6–55.7%). The overall prevalence rates by POSEIDON groups were 44.2% (group 1; 95% CI 42.6–45.9), 36.1% (group 2; 95% CI 34.6–37.7), 5.2% (group 3; 95% CI 4.5–6.0), and 14.4% (group 4; 95% CI: 13.3–15.6). In general, POSEIDON patients were older, had a higher body mass index (BMI), lower ovarian reserve markers, and a higher frequency of female factor as the primary treatment indication than non-POSEIDON patients. The former required larger doses of gonadotropin for ovarian stimulation, despite achieving a 2.5 times lower number of retrieved oocytes than non-POSEIDON patients. Logistic regression analyses revealed that female age, BMI, ovarian reserve, and a female infertility factor were relevant predictors of the POSEIDON condition.ConclusionsThe estimated prevalence of POSEIDON patients in the general population undergoing ART is significant. These patients differ in clinical characteristics compared with non-POSEIDON patients. The POSEIDON condition is associated with female age, ovarian reserve, BMI, and female infertility. Efforts in terms of diagnosis, counseling, and treatment are needed to reduce the prevalence of low-prognosis patients.
