Successful Pregnancy and Birth in A FET Cycle Following the Triggering of Oocyte Maturation with 800 IU of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin

ObjectiveTo describe two clinical cases involving patients who were administered 800 IU of hCG to trigger oocyte maturation and who underwent a frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycle.MethodsTwo infertile patients with high ovarian response undergoing stimulation for IVF, in which 800 IU of hCG was injected by mistake. IVF patients treated under a short protocol with 800 IU of hCG triggering ovulation. Live birth, clinical pregnancy outcomes and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) were observed.ResultsNeither cycle of the two patients was canceled for oocyte retrieval failure and no OHSS was observed. Both patients gave birth to live twins after FET.ConclusionTriggering oocyte maturation in two hyper-responders by employing 800 IU of hCG could produce a good quantity of good-quality oocytes and an excellent clinical pregnancy and retain the opportunity for conception and live birth. Broader studies are needed.
