Abstrakt     OBJECTIVE: Programmed oocyte retrieval was performed in order to make the in vitro fertilization (IVF) program cheaper and work of the IVF team easier. METHOD: In a group of 77 patients included in the IVF program, the menstrual cycle was modified with estrogen-progesterone contraceptive pills. For this reason, it was possible to start the stimulation protocol in all patients on the same day. The stimulation protocol was a combination of clomiphene (100 mg) for 5 days and HMG (150 IU) every other day. Cycles were monitored by ultrasound only. RESULT: The implantation rate per embryo transfer was 22.4 percent. The number of embryos per embryo transfer was low (2.6 +/- 1.4) and eliminated the need for cryopreservation. Fertilization rate (82 percent) and embryo transfer rate (87 percent) were high. The take home baby rate was 14.3 percent. CONCLUSION: Seventy percent of all punctures were performed in 3 days in the middle of the week. In our conditions, programmed oocyte retrieval is associated with significant economic benefits.
