2. Ovarian drilling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovarian_drilling

   Ovarian drilling and ovarian wedge resection are treatment options to reduce the amount of androgen producing tissue in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). [4] PCOS is the primary cause of anovulation, which results in female infertility. [5] The induction of mono-ovulatory cycles can restore fertility. [6]

3. Infertility in polycystic ovary syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infertility_in_polycystic...

   Though surgery is not commonly performed, the polycystic ovaries can be treated with a laparoscopic procedure called "ovarian drilling" (puncture of 4-10 small follicles with electrocautery), which often results in either resumption of spontaneous ovulations or ovulations after adjuvant treatment with clomiphene or FSH. [14]

4. Ovulation induction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovulation_induction

   Laparoscopic ovarian drilling: This 'update' of ovarian wedge resection employs a unipolar coagulating current or puncture of the ovarian surface with a laser in four to ten places to a depth of 4±10 mm on each ovary.

5. Anovulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anovulation

   Treatment for management of anovulation due to PCOS is multifaceted, including weight reduction, ovulation induction agents, insulin-sensitizing agents, gonadotrophins and ovarian drilling. In PCOS patients with overweight or obesity, weight loss is first line treatment.

6. Poor ovarian reserve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poor_ovarian_reserve

   Poor ovarian reserve is a condition of low fertility characterized by 1): low numbers of remaining oocytes in the ovaries or 2) possibly impaired preantral oocyte development or recruitment. Recent research suggests that premature ovarian aging and premature ovarian failure (aka primary ovarian insufficiency) may represent a continuum of ...

7. Ovary - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovary

   As ovarian reserve and fertility decline with age, there is also a parallel increase in pregnancy failure and meiotic errors resulting in chromosomally abnormal conceptions. The ovarian reserve and fertility perform optimally around 20–30 years of age. [ 18 ]

8. Transvaginal oocyte retrieval - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transvaginal_oocyte_retrieval

   TVOR is typically performed after ovarian hyperstimulation, where oocytes are pharmacologically stimulated to mature. When the ovarian follicles have reached a certain degree of development, induction of final oocyte maturation is performed, generally by an intramuscular or subcutaneous injection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). [10]

9. Ovulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovulation

   The ovarian follicles rupture and release the secondary oocyte ovarian cells. [1] After ovulation, during the luteal phase, the egg will be available to be fertilized by sperm. If it is not, it will break down in less than a day. Meanwhile, the uterine lining (endometrium) continues to thicken to be able to receive a fertilized egg.
