Objective: To determine optimal management with one or two mature follicles after stimulation. Design: Retrospective analysis.Setting Lister fertility clinic. Patient(s): A total of 1,350 IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles (7.3% of total) during 1998-2009 were found to have one or two mature follicles. Intervention(s): Group 1 (n = 807) comprised those who proceeded to vaginal egg collection (VEC) (59.8%; outcome per egg collection), group 2 (n = 248) those who converted to IUI (18.4%; outcome per insemination) and group 3 (n = 259) those who abandoned the current cycle (21.9%; outcome per abandoned cycle in first subsequent cycle). Main Outcome Measure(s): Live birth rate, clinical pregnancy rate, and biochemical pregnancy rate. Result(s): Biochemical pregnancy rates of 13.1%, 4.9%, and 9.7%, clinical pregnancy rates of 8.1%, 3.6%, and 7.2%, and ongoing pregnancy rates of 6.8%, 2.0%, and 5.5% were achieved in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. All pregnancy outcomes were significantly higher after VEC (group 1) than for those converted to IUI (group 2), and all pregnancy outcomes were higher with borderline significance in group 3 vs. group 2. There was no significant difference in outcome between groups 1 and 3. Conclusion(s): Our data suggest that for such poor responders, proceeding to VEC may represent their best chance of successful outcome. Conversion to IUI offers the poorest outcome, and despite the potential for improvements in cycle protocol, abandoning and a further attempt does not improve outcome (using abandoned cycle as the denominator).
