Background: The purpose of the current study was to assess if luteal support with intramuscular (IM) 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17-OHPC) (Lentogest, IBSA, Italy) improves the pregnancy outcome in comparison to natural intramuscular progesterone (Prontogest, AMSA, Italy) when administered to recipients in a frozen embryo transfer cycle.
Methods: A retrospective comparative study was performed to evaluate outcomes between two different intramuscular regimens used for luteal support in frozen embryo transfer cycles in patients underwent autologous in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles (896 IVF cycles) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) who had a blastocyst transfer from February 2014 to March 2017 at the Centre for Reproductive and Genetic Health (CRGH) in London.
Results: The live birth rates were significantly lower for the IM natural progesterone group when compared to 17-OHPC group (41.
Uterine septum can negatively affect reproductive outcomes in women. Based on evidence from retrospective observational studies, hysteroscopic incision has been considered a solution to improve reproductive performance, however there has been recent controversy on the need for surgery for uterine septum. High quality evidence from prospective studies is still lacking, and until it is available, experts are encouraged to publish their data.

- * GnRHa and dual trigger groups had higher numbers of mature oocytes recovered compared to the HCG group, but the dual trigger group experienced a notably higher rate of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).
- * The findings suggest GnRHa is preferred for maximizing oocyte yield while minimizing OHSS risk, indicating dual trigger should be avoided in oocyte donation, whereas HCG trigger can be used safely in select low responders.
