Pulsatile gonadotropin-releasing hormone therapy of anovulatory infertility.

A new treatment of anovulatory infertility has been introduced during the last few years. Pulsatile long-term administration of the hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone by means of small portable computerized infusion pumps has proved to be a safe, effective and acceptable out-patient treatment of infertility due to inadequate gonadotropin secretion. In the future, the practical pulsatile LRH treatment will in all probability to a great extent replace the present more laborious human gonadotropin therapy of anovulatory infertility.
