Abstract

Acceptable rates of fertilization, implantation, clinical pregnancy, ongoing pregnancy, and early pregnancy loss were achieved in high responders after triggering final oocyte maturation with a combination of leuprolide acetate and hCG (1,000 to 2,500 IU). These findings, along with the absence of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, suggest that this dual trigger is safe and effective for oocyte maturation in patients with significant risk factors for ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
