The poor-responder patient in an in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) program

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to review the methods and evaluate the ‘avenues’ that are open to patients and physicians in their search for improvement of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) treatment results. The option of egg donation, although very important and viable in the treatment of poor responders, is not described here.
