Brief Summary

lines of evidence that support nature of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) as "defective mineralocorticoid response" are cited, our hypothesis is tested clinically in both prophylaxis against and treatment of OHSS.

Study Arms (3)

Control group

OTHER

patients at high risk for OHSS who are receiving conventional treatment either as a prophylaxis (in the form of bromocriptine) or as a management in case of developing OHSS (as continual bromocriptine and fluid monitoring and or paracentesis and or tube thoracostomy)

Drug: Bromocriptine
