Journal ArticleDOI
Endometrial effects of long-term treatment with phytoestrogens: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
Vittorio Unfer,Maria Luisa Casini,Loredana Costabile,M. Mignosa,Sandro Gerli,Gian Carlo Di Renzo +5 more
TL;DR: Long-term treatment (up to 5 years) with soy phytoestrogens was associated with an increased occurrence of endometrial hyperplasia, calling into question the long-term safety of phy toestrogens with regard to the endometrium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phytoestrogens may improve the pregnancy rate in in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer cycles: a prospective, controlled, randomized trial.
Vittorio Unfer,Maria Luisa Casini,Sandro Gerli,Loredana Costabile,A. Marcella Mignosa,Gian Carlo Di Renzo +5 more
TL;DR: Although the results of this study encourage the use of phytoestrogens for luteal phase support in patients undergoing IVF-ET program, more studies are necessary to support the hypothesis that phy toestrogens have a beneficial effect in IVF cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recombinant versus urinary follicle-stimulating hormone in intrauterine insemination cycles: A prospective, randomized analysis of cost effectiveness
Sandro Gerli,Maria Luisa Casini,Vittorio Unfer,Loredana Costabile,Vittorio Bini,Gian Carlo Di Renzo +5 more
TL;DR: Urinary FSH and recombinant FSH are both effective in ovarian stimulation in IUI cycles and the urinary preparation is more cost effective due to the difference of its cost per IU.
Journal ArticleDOI
A prospective randomized study comparing intramuscular progesterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone caproate in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization–embryo transfer cycles
Loredana Costabile,A. Sandro Gerli,Claudio Manna,Dario Rossetti,Gian Carlo Di Renzo,Vittorio Unfer +5 more
TL;DR: Although the results of the study encourage the use of 17-HPC for luteal phase support in patients undergoing IVF-ET program, more studies are necessary to support the hypothesis that it can replace i.m. P-in-oil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low dose of ethinyl estradiol can reverse the antiestrogenic effects of clomiphene citrate on endometrium.
TL;DR: It is shown that CC has a deleterious effect on endometrium maturity and that adding ethinyl-E2 produces a favorable endometrial response even with very low doses.
