Article Abstract

Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of men and recipient age on the reproductive outcome of our oocyte donation program.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 915 cycles, taking into account men and recipient age, separately and together.

Results: The significant cut off value for men and recipients age with incidence in the reproductive outcome was 39 years. Recipient older than 38 years presented a significantly lower pregnancy and implantation rates than others (44.92 vs. 55.75 +/- 1.53%, 25.66 vs. 32.79 +/- 1.64%). If men age was older than 38, a significant reduction in pregnancy and implantation rates was observed, too (46.0 vs. 54.65%, 26.00 +/- 1.52 vs. 32.43 +/- 1.65%). When men and recipient age was analyzed together, a reduction in pregnancy and implantation was detected only if both were older than 38.

Conclusions: Present study suggests that age has a detrimental effect on the reproductive outcome of oocyte donation cycles when both men and recipient are > or = 39 years old.

Study Question: Does weight loss from a hypocaloric dietary intervention improve antral follicle dynamics in women with PCOS?

Summary Answer: During a 3-month hypocaloric dietary intervention, women with PCOS who experienced clinically meaningful weight loss showed more organized antral follicle development including fewer recruitment events, but no change in the overall frequency of selection, dominance, or ovulation.

What Is Known Already: There is a spectrum of disordered antral follicle development in women with PCOS including excessive follicle recruitment and turnover, decreased frequency of selection and dominance, and failure of ovulation. Lifestyle intervention aimed at weight loss is recommended to improve metabolic health in women with PCOS yet benefits on ovarian follicle development and ovulation are unclear.
