Brief summary
The aim of this randomized controlled study is to compare the efficacy of three successive doses of a GnRH agonist ( administered 36 , 24 and 12 hours before oocyte retrieval ) with a single dose of a GnRH agonist ( administered 36 hours before oocyte retrieval ) in triggering ovulation in hyper-responders
Interventions
GnRH agonist ( Triptorelin ) ( 0.2 mg / S.C ) is administered 36 hours before ovum pickup. Two additional doses of triptorelin ( 0.1 mg / S.C ) are administered subcutaneously 12 and 24 hours after the first dose of GnRH agonist.
GnRH agonist ( Triptorelin ) ( 0.2 mg / S.C ) is administered 36 hours before ovum pickup.
