Objective: Determine the effectiveness of in vitro maturation of oocytes in the infertility treatment in high altitude women with polycystic ovaries. Methods: Design: descriptive and retrospective study. Participants: Women with polycystic ovaries and infertility. Interventions: there were 11 women from locations above 7,546 feet above sea level with polycystic ovaries and infertility in which were performed in vitro maturation of oocytes, followed by intracytoplasmic sperm injection, culture and embryo vitrification. After that, the endometrium was prepared and the embryos were thawed and transferred. Main results mesurements: oocytes maturation, fertilization, clinical pregnancy and implantation rates. Results: Oocytes maturation rate was 86.1%; fertilization rate 90.3%; clinical pregnancy rate 36.4% and implantation rate 17.4%. Conclusions: In vitro maturation of oocytes is an effective technique in the infertility treatment of high altitude women with polycystic ovaries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
