Efficacy of dehydroepiandrosterone priming in women with poor ovarian response undergoing IVF/ICSI: a meta-analysis
Unknown authors
Published in Frontiers in Endocrinology
Key Findings
DHEA priming was associated with better clinical pregnancy and live birth rates in non-randomised studies, but benefits were not confirmed in the RCT-only subgroup.
Conclusions
Evidence for DHEA priming in poor ovarian responders is weakened once analysis is limited to randomised trials.
Outcomes Measured
The higher clinical pregnancy and live birth rates in those non-RCTs should be interpreted with caution because of potential bias.
