The present study aims to investigate the effects of the combined therapy myo-inositol (MI) plus D-chiro-inositol (DCI) or D-chiro-inositol treatment in oocyte quality.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women undergoing IVF-ET were treated with myo-inositol combined with D-chiro-inositol in the physiological ratio (1.1 g myo-inositol plus 27.6 mg of D-chiro-inositol; INOFOLIC combi Lo.Li.pharma) or D-chiro-inositol alone (500 mg; Interquim, s.a., Barcelona, Spain) to evaluate the umber of morphological mature oocytes, total International Units (IU) of recombinant FSH administered and the number of grade 1 embryos.
The data clearly showed that only the combined therapy was able to improve oocyte and embryo quality, as well as pregnancy rates, in PCOS women undergoing IVF-ET.
The present paper further supports the hypothesis that MI plays a crucial role in the ovary in PCOS women. In particular, due to the physiological role played by MI and DCI, the combined therapy should represent a better choice.
本研究旨在探讨肌醇(MI)与 D-手性肌醇(DCI)联合治疗或 D-手性肌醇治疗对卵母细胞质量的影响。
接受体外受精-胚胎移植(IVF-ET)的多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)妇女接受肌醇与 D-手性肌醇按生理比例(1.1 g 肌醇加 27.6 mg D-手性肌醇;INOFOLIC combi Lo.Li.pharma)或单独 D-手性肌醇(500 mg;Interquim,s.a.,巴塞罗那,西班牙)联合治疗,以评估形态成熟卵母细胞的数量、重组促卵泡激素的总国际单位(IU)用量和 1 级胚胎的数量。
数据清楚地表明,只有联合治疗才能改善 PCOS 妇女接受 IVF-ET 的卵母细胞和胚胎质量以及妊娠率。
本研究进一步支持了 MI 在 PCOS 妇女卵巢中发挥关键作用的假说。特别是由于 MI 和 DCI 发挥的生理作用,联合治疗应该是更好的选择。
