OOCYTE FINAL MATURATION TRIGGERS IN IVF PROGRAMS

Abstract

A trigger is a firing key (Lat. trigger). A luteinizing hormone is this trigger – a trigger of ovulation at a certain cycle of the ovarial cycle. Understanding of the trigger problem in the artificially cycles of IVF programs requires recollection of certain theoretical issues of follicle growth and maturation as well as the ovulation process in the natural ovarian cycle [1, 2].
