Luteinzing Hormone Activity in Menotropins Optimizes Folliculogenesis and Treatment in Controlled Ovarian Stimulation [PDF]
Although the role that LH plays in folliculogenesis is still controversial, recent evidence points toward facilitatory actions of LH activity in ovulation induction. Thus, we compared the response to either highly purified FSH (75 IU FSH/ampoule; group A, 25 subjects) or human menopausal gonadotropin (75 IU FSH and 75 IU LH/ampoule; group B, 25 ...

A comparison of menotropin, highly-purified menotropin and follitropin alfa in cycles of intracytoplasmic sperm injection [PDF]
Over the last several decades, as a result of an evolution in manufacturing processes, a marked development has been made in the field of gonadotropins for ovarian stimulation. Initially, therapeutic gonadotropins were produced from a simple process of urine extraction and purification; now they are produced via a complex system involving recombinant ...

The Study of Induction of Ovulation with Menotropins: Analysis of Results of 1897 Treatment Cycles
Ovulation and the development of a corpus luteum with intact endocrine function is the result of a perfectly balanced interaction among hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone, pituitary gonadotropins, and ovarian response. Any disturbance in one of these endocrine glands or in the complex feedback mechanism of the closed circuit would result in ...

P-013 Evaluation of the efficacy of a short course of multidose menotropins in the treatment of male infertility in real clinical practice [PDF]
Is it possible to establish prognostic criteria for response to short course of multidose menotropin therapy in men with sperm pathology. We found the increase of the effectiveness of menotropins with an increase in the duration of their use

The origin of serum progesterone during the follicular phase of menotropin-stimulated cycles [PDF]
The study was designed to investigate the source of progesterone secretion during pituitary suppression and ovarian stimulation. It involved 416 women undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) who were treated with gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) and human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG) (group I), 139 women undergoing ovulation induction ...

Menotropins as a possible risk factor for premature deliveries in triplet pregnancies
This study was undertaken in order to evaluate pregnancy outcome in three groups of triplet conceptions. Of 36 delivered triplet gestations, seven were spontaneous, 12 achieved using clomiphene citrate and 17 induced by menotropins. The mean gestational age (weeks) at delivery was 36.5 +/- 1.0 SD, for spontaneous and clomiphene citrate pregnancies it ...

Postcoital testing in women during menotropin therapy
The authors were interested in determining the predictive value of postcoital testing in women who undergo human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) therapy for the induction of ovulation. Fifty consecutive patients were studied whose husbands had acceptable semen analyses; 24 of the patients conceived.
