Summary

As women age, their response to ovulation induction is progressively diminished due to the continuous depletion of primordial follicles and to changes in the ovarian endocrine/paracrine microenvironment. While many couples faced with the reality of a diagnosis of low functional ovarian reserve may turn to the use of donor gametes to achieve a pregnancy, some still feel the need to try on their own, despite a poor prognosis. For such women careful preparation and hormonal priming in the months prior to beginning an IVF cycle can increase their chance of a successful outcome. Optimal treatment of these patients differs from the usual treatment of women with normal ovarian reserve in every aspect and needs to be highly individualized.
