Outline of Final Research Achievements

Objective: To determine whether oocyte retrieval from non-dominant small follicles supplies mature oocytes and increases live births in natural cycle IVF. And to increase the number of harvest mature oocytes and improve the pregnancy rate.
Results: An average of 1.26 mature oocytes can be obtained from small follicle puncture. We have gotten 18 fertilizations from less than 300 mature oocytes, and obtained 5 live births during 2years(2015-2016). And follicular fluid and LHGR expression analyses revealed that small follicles are derived from closed follicles. Mouse cumulus cells-oocyte complex study showed high concentrate androgen prevented oocyte maturation.
Conclusion: Non-dominant small follicles are a promising supplementary source of mature oocytes for natural cycle. To obtain mature oocytes from small follicles, it’s important to eliminate the high androgen state of the microenvironment by early retrieve just after LH surge.
