title: [Quality of ovary stimulation outside IVF].
abstract: Ovarian stimulation outside IVF is a relatively little studied and codified technique, although in France it accounts for two-thirds of the ovarian stimulations practiced. However, guidelines have recently been published, including from the AFSSAPS, recommending a high-quality approach that includes training and continuing education for practitioners and an organization adapted to patient management structures; using pretreatment workups, analogous to those used for IVF; respecting indications, some of which have been clearly codified (hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism, polycystic ovaries (PCO), and isolated anovulation, noniatrogenic hyperprolactinemia, etc.). This method also requires informed consent from the couples treated as well as rigorous respect and follow-up of the stimulation protocols used.
