title: Ovarian programming and GIFT.
abstract: The procedures used for programming and ovarian stimulation in GIFT are identical to those used for in-vitro fertilization. At the Baudelocque Hospital, the hypophyseal gonadal axis is suppressed by administering a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogue (Decapeptyl, D-Trp-6-LHRH). Programming for the week of GIFT is then possible by controlling three stages: the beginning of treatment, which is independent of the date of the patient's period, the duration of treatment, which has 5 days' maximum variation, and an end-point of suppressing the spontaneous LH surge.
