ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Obesity has detrimental influences on women reproductive health. There is little experience in optimizing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) protocols to treat Chinese obese patients who are undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) therapy.Methods:
The clinical outcome differences were retrospectively analyzed among obese patients who received gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a), GnRH antagonist (GnRH-ant), micro dose GnRH-a (mGnRH-a) and GnRH-a long protocol in IVF-ET cycle at Chengdu Jinjiang Hospital for Women's and Children's Health from January 2014 to December 2019.Results:
The transplantation rate of the GnRH-a long protocol group (59.1%) was higher than that of the GnRH-ant (25.9%) and mGnRH-a (36.7%) groups. The total live birth rate of the GnRH-a long protocol group (46.2%) was higher than that of the GnRH-a group (25.9%) and GnRH-ant group (40.3%). The total number of frozen embryos in the GnRH-ant group was higher than in the other groups (P < 0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, the logistic regression analysis showed that the GnRH-a long protocol group had higher probabilities of biochemical pregnancy, clinical pregnancy, and live birth than the GnRH-a protocol group. The Gn dose in the mGnRH-a group was higher than the other three groups. Whether single or twin, there were similar neonatal outcomes among the four groups including premature birth rate, Apgar score, newborn weight, and length.Conclusion:
For young obese patients undergoing IVF-ET, the GnRH-a long protocol for COH gives better pregnancy outcomes.
