A study was performed to see if the level of serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) or luteinizing hormone (LH) obtained in the early follicular phase could predict the number of oocytes retrieved following in vitro fertilization (IVF). For each patient the sera FSH and LH were measured by both an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and a radioimmunoassay (RIA) method. With the ELISA method when early follicular phase serum FSH was < or = to the group median (9.0 mIU/mL) 16.5 oocytes were retrieved vs 6.7 when FSH was greater than the median. Comparable values using the median of the RIA assay were 17.5 vs 8.1 oocytes. Similar analysis for serum LH failed to show any relationship between baseline LH and the number of oocytes retrieved. This study thus demonstrates that at least one non-isotopic method is equal to a specific RIA method in distinguishing good from average or poor responders.
