Brief summary
To evaluate the role of Myo-inositol, melatonin and co-enzyme Q10 on ovarian reserve parameters and ICSI outcome in poor ovarian responder
Detailed description
Each patient will be subjected to: Full history taking. Systematic clinical examination to assess the general condition, body mass index (BMI) and local pelvic physical findings and AFC by trans-vaginal ultrasound on day 2 to day 3 of menstruation. Routine labs as CBC, liver & kidney functions to exclude general disease as a contraindication for induction or pregnancy. Blood sample will be obtained for assessment of basal serum levels of FSH, LH, E2 on days 2- 3 of the cycle. PRL, AMH and TSH Ovarian Stimulation The patients will begin injections of recombinant FSH (rFSH, Gonal-F; Merck- Serono, Italy) from day 2-3 of menstruation, with daily dose of 300-450 IU adjusted according to individual conditions on the basis of the antral follicle count (AFC),hormonal profile, age, body mass index (BMI), and previous ovarian response, according to the standard operating procedures of the center. . For pituitary suppression, the patients will receive GnRH antagonist Cetrorelix (CETROTIDE 0.25Mg/d, Merck Serono, Germany) 0.25 mg/day subcutaneously from day 6 of induction until trigger day. The serum LH, estradiol levels as well as number and size of follicles will be monitored every two days, starting from stimulation day 6 until the day of hCG injection
