Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Most women with panhypopituitarism will undergo successful ovulation induction with gonadotropin therapy. Few proven treatment options exist for those who respond poorly to such therapy. A poor response may indicate diminished ovarian reserve, or reflect a deficiency of other key components for ovarian function.
CASE: A 31-year-old female with panhypopituitarism and a poor response to gonadotropin therapy took growth hormone (GH) replacement for 4 months prior to restarting gonadotropins. When the serum level of insulin-like growth factor-I normalized, she began ovulation induction with gonadotropins with transdermal estradiol. After 63 days of gonadotropin therapy, she had a leading follicle of 18 mm, followed by follicles of 16.5 mm and 15.5 mm. The serum estradiol was 796 pg/ml, and human chorionic gonadotropin was administered. The patient conceived with timed intercourse. A prior attempt at ovulation induction with gonadotropins alone failed to produce follicular development.
CONCLUSION: Prolonged gonadotropin treatment may be necessary to achieve ovulation and avoid the misdiagnosis of ovarian failure. Co-treatment with GH and estrogen may improve the follicular response in a poor responder with panhypopituitarism.
