IVF trigger comparison
A prospective analysis of 499 IVF cycles compared all three trigger agents. Peak hormone levels differed significantly. hCG levels peaked at 121 IU/L at 24 hours. LH peaked at approximately 140 IU/L at 4 hours following GnRH agonist trigger, and at approximate

- A prospective analysis of 499 IVF cycles compared all three trigger agents. Peak hormone levels differed significantly. hCG levels peaked at 121 IU/L at 24 hours. LH peaked at approximately 140 IU/L at 4 hours following GnRH agonist trigger, and at approximately 41 IU/L at 4 hours following kisspeptin trigger. The lower LH peak with kisspeptin is precisely why it carries a lower OHSS risk. The stimulation is sufficient for egg maturation without the excessive, prolonged ovarian stimulation that causes hyperstimulation.
