Minimal Ovarian Stimulation Jung-Hyun Cho, M.D. (Miz Medi Hospital)
LH FSH Recruitment Selection Dominance Ovulation
FSH LH hCG FSH GnRH-a Ultrashort Short Long
Disadvantages of COH • High costs of ovulatory drugs GnRH-agonist, r-FSH, r-hCG • Physical discomforts Daily injection of gonadotropins, Blood sampling • Time loss Daily visiting clinic, Frequent sonography • Risk of OHSS 5 ~ 10% of COH • Long term unkown risk of ovarian cancer
Concept of minimal ovarian stimulation • Less complex, Shorter stimulation regimens, Less expensive • Less patient discomfort, Less monitoring, Less programmable • Less chances of complications, Long term risks • Fewer oocytes for fertilization in vitro • Fewer spare embryos for cryopreservation
Applications of minimal ovarian stimulation • Natural cycle IVF-ET Kim KR (2000) • Oral contraceptives + Clomiphene 100mg x 8 days Branigan and Ester (2000) • GnRH antagonist + hMG Frydman R et al. (1999)

Conclusion • Minal ovarian stimulation - Efficiency in producing a healthy singleton pregnancy - Less complex, shorter stimulation, less risk & complications - Improved embryo selection and endometiral receptivity • IVF-IVF-ET - To get more healthy oocytes and embryos - To get more synchronized endometrium for implantation - To improve pregnancy rate
