Mild ovarian stimulation with letrozole plus fixed dose human menopausal gonadotropin prior to IVF/ICSI for infertile non-obese women with polycystic ovarian syndrome being pre-treated with metformin: a pilot study.

CONCLUSIONS: The present study suggests that the use of letrozole as adjuvant treatment to MS protocols for IVF may be an effective alternative to CS protocols for non-obese PCOS patients pre-treated with metformin, as it provides comparable IVF outcome without requiring high FSH dose, and avoiding supraphysiological estradiol levels.
