What is the ovarian stimulation controlled?

The ovarian stimulation controlled is the first step to any assisted reproduction treatment, from a inseminated artificially, to in vitro fertilization. It is also necessary for those patients who want to freeze or vitrification their eggs for future use, also known as the preservation of fertility.

The goal of ovarian stimulation controlled is to achieve the maturation of several follicles at the same time, more than what naturally occurs in a cycle. With this we managed to increase the number of eggs that can be fertilized, subsequently, to increase the chance of a pregnancy or have more eggs to freeze.
