Figure 1 Overview of the gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist treatment regimens for oocyte donors. (A) Degarelix starting in the mid-luteal phase. (B) Degarelix starting in the early follicular phase. (C) Ganirelix starting in the mid-follicular phase. HCG=human chorionic gonadotrophin; HP-HMG=highly purified human menopausal gonadotrophin; OR=oocyte retrieval; P4=progesterone.

Figure 2 Study flow chart of the oocyte donors. GnRH=gonadotrophin-releasing hormone; ITT=intention to treat. Reproductive BioMedicine Online 2012 24, 153-162DOI: (10.1016/j.rbmo.2011.10.016) Copyright © 2011 Reproductive Healthcare Ltd. Terms and Conditions
Figure 3 Individual coefficients of variation of follicular size at screening on day 3±1 of the natural cycle and on stimulation day 1 in oocyte donors treated with placebo (n=39) (A) or GnRH antagonist (n=39) (B) in the mid-luteal phase of the natural cycle (the degarelix-ML group). The horizontal dashed line displays the 75th percentile (47.1%) of the whole trial population at screening.
