Summary

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a serious iatrogenic complication of controlled ovarian stimulation of gonadotrophin-Stimulated ovarian cycles. It is theorized to manifest systemically as a result of vasoactive mediators like vascular endothelium growth factor (VEGF) being released from hyperstimulated ovaries. As a result, capillary permeability is increased which causes the extravasation of fluid from the intravascular compartment into the third space. The haemoconcentration which ensues results in complications such as hypercoagulability and reduced end organ perfusion.

Conditions

  • Gynecologic Disease

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Coasting

In their ICSI cycle patients will continue their agonist treatment while stopping the human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) injections for 1 to 3 days until drop of estradiol to a safe level to prevent OHSS. Early OHSS is assessed at day of embryo transfer and 7 days after this date. Late OHSS is assessed 14 days after embryo transfer.

DRUG

Cabergoline

Cabergoline is used to treat different types of medical problems that occur when too much of the hormone prolactin is produced. It can be used to treat certain menstrual problems, fertility problems in men and women, and pituitary prolactinomas
