Abstract
The study was conducted on 110 poor responders undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) from October 2015 to July 2016 at the IVF Center of Millitary Medical University, Vietnam. Its aim is to investigate the effectiveness of transdermal androgel before using controlled ovarian stimulation on patients undergoing IVF. A prospective, descriptive study was conducted to compare between the group of patients who used testosterone gel and the group of those who did not in terms of the following indicators: the number of oocytes retrieved, MII oocytes, fertilization rate, number of embryos, pregnancy rate, and embryo implantation rate. The number of oocytes retrieved, number of embryos, pregnancy rate, and embryo implantation rate of the group of patients using transdermal androgel before Controlled Ovarian Stimulation (COS) were found higher than those of the control group, with statistical significance. The use of androgel before stimulating ovarian can improve the responsiveness of poor responders when undergoing IVF.
