The risks of multiple pregnancy and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) are increased in women with clomiphene resistance WHO group 2 dysfunction undergoing ovulation induction as well as the risk of spontaneous abortion if conception takes place. Semi-purified preparations of FSH have been developed in an effort to reduce the impact of exogenous LH, relatively high levels of which are present in human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG). Ovulation induction in women with clomiphene resistant WHO group 2 dysfunction who often have clinical features of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), is a major challenge. The risks of multiple pregnancy and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) are increased in this population. There also appears to be an increased risk of spontaneous abortion in those who conceive, perhaps associated with elevated LH levels. Semi-purified preparations of FSH have been developed in an effort to reduce the impact of exogenous LH, relatively high levels of which are present in human menopausal gonadotrophins.
