| Long + Growth hormone | Active Comparator | Patients in this group were given a long protocol of pituitary down-regulation with triptorelin (Decapeptyl; Ferring, Switzerland) starting on the day 21 of preceding cycle at a dose of 0.1 mg/day, subcutaneously along with Growth hormone (Norditropin, Novo nordisk) co-treatment daily in a dose of 2.5 mg S.C. till the day of hCG administration.. On the second day of menstruation, Human menopausal gonadotrophin HMG (75 IU, Merional, IBSA) was started, and this was associated with reduction of triptorelin dose to 0.05 mg/day. This reduced daily dose, in addition to HMG and growth hormone, were continued till the day of hCG administration. |
