Recent approaches in IVF are trending towards more physiological and patient friendly stimulation cycles, with reduction in cost and stress associated with ovarian stimulation.

The present review compares the follicular growth patterns and endocrine profiles in women undergoing delayed onset versus the conventional day 2 start of ovarian stimulation.
