ABSTRACT

In this chapter, risk factors for ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) are restricted to so-called controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). The primary risks for OHSS in ovulation induction (01) are not dealt with, since the aim of 01 (preferably obtaining one follicle) is differ­ ent from that of COH (obtaining multiple folli­ cles), and a low number of follicles excludes OHSS.
