Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of oral Diosmin to oral Cabergoline in the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in high-risk women underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

Detailed description

Two hundred women at risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome during ICSI cycles will be randomly scheduled into two equal groups. In group A, (Diosmin group), 2 tab / 8 hs Diosmin ( 500mg) will be given at day of HCG injection and for 2 weeks ; while in group B (Cabergoline group), 1 tab/day Cabergoline( 0.5 mg) will be given at day of HCG injection and for eight days.

Interventions

2 tab / 8 hs Diosmin ( 500mg) will be given at day of HCG injection and for14 days

DRUGCabergoline

1 tab/day Cabergoline( 0.5 mg) will be given at day of HCG injection and for 8 days

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of participants with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS)every week for eight weeksDiagnosis 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).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
pregnancy rate14 days after embryos transferβ-hCG (serum hCG test) will be checked 14 days after embryos transfer
