Impact of coasting in patients undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation with the gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist cetrorelix.
Coasting is the most popular modality for the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, but this procedure has not been evaluated in patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) with GnRH antagonists. The impact of coasting in a cycle in which GnRH antagonist is used was evaluated in 29 women, and it was found that coasting did not deleteriously affect the outcome in high-responder patients undergoing COH with GnRH antagonists.
