Abstract
Background/Objectives: This paper undertakes an investigation into the implications of premature progesterone rise (PPR) on pregnancy outcomes in freeze-all strategy cycles. Methods: A retrospective cohort study encompassing 675 IVF/ICSI cycles using a freeze-all strategy was enrolled. The cycles were categorized into two groups based on serum progesterone levels at the time of hCG administration: 526 cycles had levels below 1.5 ng/mL, while 149 cycles had levels equal to or above 1.5 ng/mL. Results: The findings revealed a significantly higher number of mature follicles and retrieved oocytes in patients with PPR across all AMH categories. Multiple analyses revealed factors influencing PPR, including the duration of induction and the number of retrieved oocytes. Within the same oocyte retrieval number group, patients with PPR demonstrated non-inferior pregnancy outcomes compared to non-PPR patients. Upon adjustment for age, AMH, and total follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) dosage, PPR maintained a positive correlation with the cumulative live birth rate (LBR). Conclusions: The study showed that PPR correlates with an increase in retrieved oocytes while maintaining similar embryo quality and oocyte retrieval rates and results in a higher cumulative LBR.
