Association between GnRH Receptor Polymorphisms and Luteinizing Hormone Levels for Low Ovarian Reserve Infertile Women.

ABSTRACT: The choice of ovarian stimulation protocols in assisted reproduction technology (ART) cycles for low ovarian reserve patients is challenging. Our previous report indicated that the gonadotrophin-releasing (GnRH) agonist (GnRHa) protocol is better than the GnRH antagonist (GnRHant) protocol for young age poor responders. Here, we recruited 269 patients with anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) < 1.2 ng/mL undergoing their first ART cycles for this nested case-control study. We investigated the genetic variants of the relevant genes, including follicular stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR; rs6166), AMH (rs10407022), GnRH (rs6185), and GnRH receptor (GnRHR; rs3756159) in patients <35 years (n = 86) and patients ≥35 years of age (n = 183).
