  • Title: Ultrasonographic assessment of Graafian follicle growth under monofollicular and multifollicular conditions in clomiphene citrate-stimulated cycles.
    Author: Leerentveld RA, van Gent I, van der Stoep M, Wladimiroff JW.
    Journal: Fertil Steril; 1985 Apr; 43(4):565-9. PubMed ID: 3157605.
    Abstract:
    Growth of the dominant follicle was assessed by means of real-time sector scanning in 52 clomiphene citrate-stimulated cycles in 44 patients awaiting laparoscopic oocyte recovery for in vitro fertilization purposes. Follicular growth profiles under both monofollicular and multifollicular conditions were compared with each other and with a reference growth curve derived from 26 ovulatory cycles in 25 spontaneously cycling women. In the clomiphene-stimulated cycles, growth of the dominant follicle under both monofollicular and multifollicular conditions was significantly faster (P less than 0.01) than in the reference group. There was no significant difference in follicular growth between monofollicular and multifollicular clomiphene-stimulated cycles.
