[Spontaneous conception after laparoscopic coagulation of the ovarian surfaces in a patient with primary normogonadotropic hyperandrogenemic amenorrhea].
A patient with primary amenorrhoea was kept under hormonal replacement therapy and oral contraceptives since the age of sixteen. At the age of 30 she first consulted the endocrinologist because of infertility after one year of "post-pill-amenorrhoea". This first hormone check detected a severe hypertestosteronaemia (1.3 ng/ml). During four stimulation cycles using gonadotropins she showed a polyfollicular reaction and finally developed a hyperstimulation WHO II. During the following cycle she underwent hystero- and laparoscopy; laparoscopic electrocoagulation of the ovarian surface (LEOS) was carried out during this treatment. She subsequently conceived spontaneously twice.
