2	fragile eggs	19 July 2010		0
Hi guys. while doing ICSI, Evrery now and then, we come across eggs which are fragile. IF you aspirate cytoplasm, in such eggs, then they degenerate. But sometimes they dont and even fertilise. And if you dont aspirate cytoplasm, they dont degenerate, and they even fertilise. What is the sensible and safe way of handling such eggs. SPG [ Reply here ]

Re: Intravenous hCG for IVF
I don't have an answer for this, and it may be too late by the time this is posted, but my concern over timing of egg retrieval, or ovulation after intravenous administration of hCG, would center around the clearance rate of hCG, since the delivery method is different. And what would the effective doses be for either the intravenous or intramuscular route? The manufacturer might have the data from animal models, if such an approach was ever studied. A literature search sounds like a good idea. I would be interested in hearing how your case progressed, regardless. Mike
