Combined bromocryptine and hMG treatment in hyperprolactinemic infertility.
Ten women with hyperprolactinemic sterility, which had lasted for 2-8 years, did not conceive under bromocryptine alone or combined with clomiphene, with or without hCG. Two of the patients were anovulatory, while in eight the main problem seemed to be an unreceptive cervix. They were all treated with bromocryptine combined with menotropin (hMG) and hCG for one to four cycles. Seven became pregnant after one to two cycles. Three remained unresponsive even after four cycles of treatment. It is proposed that in hyperprolactinemic infertility a combination of bromocryptine with hMG-hCG may give good results when other regimens of treatment have failed.
