Abstrakt: Ovarian stimulation in patients with disorders of ovulation or an inadequate luteal phase using human menopausal gonadotropins (hMG) gives a low pregnancy rate with a high incidence of overstimulation and a premature LH surge. In order to overcome these problems, a new approach has been used, namely prior suppression of endogenous gonadotropins with a gonadotropin-releasing-hormone analog (LHRH) and subsequent ovarian stimulation with hMG. We present a case of ovarian stimulation with pure FSH during suppression of endogenous gonadotropins with the LHRH analog Buserelin. A clinical pregnancy was achieved in the first treatment cycle and led us to conclude that follicular development does not depend on LH stimulation. This could be of substantial interest in IVF programs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
