Abstract

The use of GnRH pulsatile to induce ovulation is an efficacious and safe form of therapy in hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, whereas greater difficulties are encountered in the treatment of chronic anovulation due to PCOD. The paper reports the results of 12 ovulation induction cycles using a GnRH micropump without and after GnRH analogues.
