A total of 174 patients, 121 withGnRH agonist long protocol and 53 with flexible multidose GnRH antagonistprotocol were included in the study. Stimulation periods, total doses of usedFSH, obtained oocyte counts, fertilization rates, implantation rates, averagevalues of hCG positive rates, clinic pregnancy and discharged newborn rateswere compared between the two groups.Results: Average oftotal stimulation time for GnRH antagonist protocol group was found to be8.57±1.26 days, while it was 9.47±1.56 for the GnRG agonist group. HCG positiverates were 35.8% and 34.7% for the GnRH antagonist group and GnRH agonist grouprespectively. Rates of newborns discharged to home was 28.25% for GnRHantagonist protocol and 27.3% in th other.Conclusion: Flexiblemultidose GnRH antagonist protocol provided shorter stimulation period andrequired less average total FSH dose when compared with the GnRH agonist longprotocol. Besides flexible multidose GnRH antagonist protocol can be said toprovide similar effectiveness with the GnRH agonist long protocol. CR - 1. Barbieri RL. Female infertility.
