Continuation of a donor oocyte pregnancy in menopause without early pregnancy support
Abstract
A case of successful impregnation of a functionally agonadal 45-year-old woman with donor eggs is reported. The placental takeover period was attained with no early exogenous E2 and P support. This case report highlights the need for further research on the ovarian function at menopause and the steroid hormonal requirements of early gestation.
