dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this retrospective case-control study was to analyze the effect of administering indomethacin after triggering final oocyte maturation in patients with poor ovarian response (POR) on the cycle cancellation rate due to premature ovulation (PO), the number of oocytes retrieved and the clinical outcomes of IVF cycles. Study Design: A total of 214 patients with POR, diagnosed according to the Bologna criteria, who underwent fresh IVF cycle via flexible gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocol were enrolled in the study. The control group consisted of 100 patients, whereas the indomethacin group included 114 patients who received 100 mg rectal indomethacin administered twice within the same day (twelve hours apart)-starting at twelve hours after triggering. Cycle cancelation rates (CCR), number of oocytes retrieved (nOR), implantation rates (IR), biochemical pregnancy (BP) and clinical pregnancy loss rates (CPL), ongoing pregnancy rates (OPR) and live birth rates (LBR) were compared between the indomethacin and control groups. Results: The CCR rate was significantly lower in the indomethacin group (1.8%) compared to the control group (1.8% vs %12%, p = 0.01). In the control group, those with cycle cancellation were older than those without cycle cancellation (mean age 42.2 +/- 2.3 years vs. 39.36 +/- 4.3 years, p = 0.001) and had lower anti-Mullerian hormone levels and lower antral follicle count (0.59 +/- 0.2 ng/mL vs 0.79 +/- 0.2 ng/mL, p = 0.001 and 4 +/- 0.6 vs 5.7 +/- 1.7, p = 0.001, respectively). In multivariable analysis, when the dependent variable in the logistic regression model was coded as the absence of cycle cancellation, it was observed that only indomethacin had a statistically significant effect on cycle cancellation (beta = -1.931, standard error = 0.832, Exp(B) = 0.145, p = 0.020). nOR was higher in the indomethacin group than control group but the difference did not reach significance (p = 0.07). Moreover, the IR, OPR and LBR, BP and CPL values were similar in the indomethacin and control groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Based on data from this study, it can be concluded that indomethacin reduces cycle cancelation due to PO in patients with POR -without compromising implantation and pregnancy rates. However, further randomized controlled trials with larger sample sizes are required to clarify the definitive effect of indomethacin in the treatment of patients with POR. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.
