Effectiveness and Safety of Highly Purified Human Menopausal Gonadotropin in Hyper Responder Iraqi Females Undergoing Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection

Background: The response to ovarian stimulation in females is heterogeneous, so treatment individualization offers both safety and efficacy. The use of highly purified human menopausal gonadotrophin (HP-hMG) during controlled ovarian stimulation is widely accepted nowadays but with absence of evide...

description Background: The response to ovarian stimulation in females is heterogeneous, so treatment individualization offers both safety and efficacy. The use of highly purified human menopausal gonadotrophin (HP-hMG) during controlled ovarian stimulation is widely accepted nowadays but with absence of evidence demonstrating the advantages of this gonadotrophin. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of highly purified human menopausal gonadotrophin vs. recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation for hyper responder females undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Subjects and methods: Eighty- one sub-fertile females who were admitted to the infertility center of High Institute for Infertility Diagnosis and Assisted Reproductive Technologies/ Al- Nahrain university, during the period from January 2020 to December 2023 were included in the present study. GnRH antagonist down regulation was used for all participants. According to gonadotrophin type used for ovarian hyperstimulation females were divided into 2 groups: group who was stimulated with r- FSH and the other group who were stimulated with HP-hMG.  Results: Females who were stimulated by r-FSH showed insignificantly higher total number of retrieved oocytes, mature oocytes and lower immature oocytes yield. In addition, they had a significantly higher pregnancy rate (29 % vs 0%), and higher OHSS rate (26.08% vs 16.66%), compared to those stimulated by HP-hMG. Conclusion: In hyper responders; highly purified human menopausal gonadotrophin provides lower efficacy but higher safety than recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone in terms of oocyte yield, pregnancy rate and OHSS development
