The aim of this study was to evaluate the oocyte maturation rate when GnRH-a and hCG (dual trigger) are co-administered, compared to the standard hCG trigger within the same patient. Included in the study were GnRH antagonist ICSI cycles performed in 137 patients who had a standard hCG trigger cycle...
