Why and how to supplement androgens in infertile women?
Thursday, January 16, 2020
7pm CET, 1pm ET
DHEA Survey
Across the global IVF community, there is a lack of consensus regarding the usage of DHEA to support patients both before, and during, treatment for egg collection. The survey below has been launched to learn from your clinical experience regarding this issue.
Take the DHEA Survey
About the webinar:
Informal survey data suggest that more than half of IVF centers worldwide in one form or the other supplement androgens to some of their female infertility patients. A majority do so in the form of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) which is the substrate for testosterone (T) production in the human body. DHEA, itself an androgen with only minimal affinity to the androgen receptor, is clinically largely ineffective. Once converted to T, especially small growing follicles, however, greatly benefit from supplementation if women are hypo-androgenic. We here discuss the physiological underpinnings of androgen supplementation in selected infertile women and its practical application.
