Objective: To evaluate the effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) on fertility in women with mild endometriosis who are undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) procedures. Design: Prospective, randomized, controlled trial. Setting: Three tertiary university hospitals. Patient(s): Four hundred infertile women with mild endometriosis, documented with laparoscopy, undergoing IVF and 200 women with tubal factor infertility. Intervention(s): Administration of GnRH-a for 3 months before an IVF attempt (group A, n = 200) or IVF without GnRH-a ( group B, n = 200). Main Outcome Measure(s): Follicular fluid (FF) levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b), IL-6, IL-8, and IL-1 receptor antagonist; fertilization rate (FR), implantation rate (IR), quality of embryos, and clinical pregnancy rate (PR). Result(s): Women who received GnRH-a had a statistically significantly reduced concentration of FF cytokines compared with women who did not receive this regimen. Women in group B had a reduced FR (61.7; 95% CI, 59.20-64.20) compared with the women in group A (72.7; 95% CI, 70.50-74.90) and compared with the women with tubal factor infertility (74.7; 95% CI, 72.00-77.24). The embryo quality, IR, and clinical PR showed no statistically significant improvement in the women of group A compared with group B. Conclusion(s): Women who received GnRH-a for 3 months had a lower concentration of FF cytokines. These women had also a higher FR than the women who did not receive GnRH-a. However, the IR, embryo quality, and clinical PR showed no statistically significant difference when comparing the two groups. (C) 2019 by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
