Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Endometriosis is understood to be the most intractable cause of female infertility. It has been reported that poor oocyte quality, low fertilization rates, poor embryo quality and impaired implantation of endometriosis patients relate to their poor pregnancy outcomes. This study was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of Dienogest (a selective progestin that has been used for the treatment of endometriosis) treatment immediately before in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in infertile patients with endometriosis.

Interventions/Control_1

L group: Long protocol group (control group: without DNG)
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa, 900 micro g/day) is given from the mid-luteal phase in the previous cycle to the ovulation induction by HCG. Ovarian stimulation is initiated from 2nd day of the IVF-ET cycle, 225 IU follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) for 3days, and thereafter 150 IU human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG). Oocyte retrieval is carried out 35 h after HCG injection. Each mature follicle (more than 18 mm in diameter) is aspirated separately and the follicular fluid containing the oocyte was collected. Immediately after removal of the oocyte, each follicular fluid is centrifuged to remove cellular components, and the supernatant is obtained.

Interventions/Control_2

D group: Dienogest (DNG) group
Dienogest (2mg/day 1mg tablet 2 times/day) is administered orally for three months until the mid-luteal phase in the previous cycle, and followed by GnRHa for standardized IVF-ET long protocol. Ovarian stimulation and oocyte retrieval are same as L group.

68

Results

The numbers of growing follicles, retrieved oocytes, fertilized oocytes, and blastocysts were significantly lower in the DNG group than in the control group. The fertilization and blastocyst rates were also lower in the DNG group than in the control group. Although there was no significant difference in the implantation rate between the groups, the cumulative pregnancy rate and live birth rate were lower in the DNG group than in the control group.

Baseline Characteristics

The study inclusion criteria were as follows: infertile women 20 to 40 years of age with endometrial ovarian cysts (<4 cm) diagnosed by ultrasonography or MRI or laparoscopy. The stage of endometriosis (stage III or IV) was defined by the revised American Society for Reproduction Medicine (rASRM) classification via laparoscopy. Women using hormonal contraceptives or other hormonal therapies or who had a disease condition that might interfere with the conduct of the study were excluded. A total of 68 women were therefore included in this study.

Participant flow

The subjects were randomized to either the DNG group or control group using the envelope method with envelopes distributed by the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Yamaguchi University School of Medicine to each facility (DNG group: 33 cases, control group: 35 cases).

Adverse events

none

Outcome measures

Age, stage of endometriosis (rASRM), serum CA125, total amount of FSH (HMG), The numbers of mature follicles, retrieved oocytes, and fertilized oocytes as well as the fertilization rates, implantation rates, and clinical pregnancy rates.
