Effect of LHCGR Gene Polymorphism (rs2293275) on LH Supplementation Protocol Outcomes in Second IVF Cycles: A Retrospective Study.

Infertility is a major concern for couples wanting to have progeny. Despite recent advances in the field of IVF, success rates still need improvement. Understanding the patient's variability and addressing it with personalized interventions may improve the success rate of fertilization and live births.

Role of Lh polymorphisms and r-hLh supplementation in GnRh agonist treated ART cycles: A cross sectional study.

Study Objectives: To investigate the effect of N312S polymorphism in the LHCGR gene as a predictive pharmacogenetic marker on clinical and embryological parameters and determining the need of r-hLH supplementation combine with r-hFSH in patients undergoing ART treatment.

Study Design: In a cross-sectional study, a retrospective analysis of women (n = 553), who underwent controlled ovarian stimulation treatment protocol was conducted during the years 2012-2014. R-hFSH (Gonal-F, Merck Serono) was administered to all patients undergoing ART cycle after initiating long luteal gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist down-regulation.
