Effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-ant) cessation on trigger day in a GnRH-ant protocol: a meta-analysis
Published 2025-12-01Get full textBackground The gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocol is associated with few oocytes retrieved, few mature oocytes and poor endometrial receptivity. Omission of GnRH-ants on trigger day seems unlikely to induce preovulation and may improve outcomes in the GnRH-ant protocol. Th...
