Abstract
Objective
To make a review of studies that assessed the outcomes of GnRH agonist oocyte triggering in comparison with hCG in prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and pregnancy rates.
Methods
A systematic review of studies presented in the following database: PUBMED, Lilacs and Scielo submitted from January 2005 to October 2015. The keywords were ovulation induction, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and gonadotropin releasing hormone.
Results
One hundred fifty-four articles were found. From these, twelve studies were completely analyzed. Eight fulfilled the inclusion criteria and one was included after the bibliographic review of the previous ones. From these nine submitted articles, two are retrospective and the others are prospective.
Conclusion
The use of GnRH agonist for oocyte triggering was comparable with hCG and showed low frequency of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
