The Ovarian Sensitivity Index (OSI) Significantly Correlates with Ovarian Reserve Biomarkers, Is More Predictive of Clinical Pregnancy than the Total Number of Oocytes, and Is Consistent in Consecutive IVF Cycles.

ABSTRACT: Some biomarkers of ovarian responsiveness to gonadotropins and the total number of retrieved oocytes are known to affect the success rate after controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). The aim of this study was to study another putative marker, the Ovarian Sensitivity Index (OSI: (number of retrieved oocytes/total gonadotropin dose) × 1000), assessing whether (a) it correlates with ovarian responsiveness biomarkers, (b) it is an independent predictor of clinical pregnancy, (c) it predicts clinical pregnancy comparably to the number of retrieved oocytes, and (d) it is consistent in the repeated COS cycles of the same woman. retrospective analysis. public IVF Unit in University Hospital.
