This document summarizes research on mild versus standard ovarian stimulation protocols for in vitro fertilization (IVF) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Standard IVF protocols for PCOS patients often result in excessive ovarian response, high miscarriage rates, and risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Mild stimulation protocols aim to limit the number of oocytes retrieved to reduce risks, while various studies have found mild protocols achieve comparable pregnancy rates to standard protocols and have additional benefits like lower costs and greater patient comfort. The document reviews definitions of mild versus standard IVF, various mild stimulation medication options and regimens, and clinical trial results comparing outcomes between mild and standard stimulation protocols.
