Cells were obtained from patients treated with different protocols of COH. In addition to gonadotropins they received triptorelin, cetrorelix, ganirelix or no GnRH analogue.
Since there is some controversy about the action of GnRH agonists in the human ovary we also tested the effect of triptorelin on steroid production in cultured human granulosa lutein cells.
