Ovsynch was performed with a combination of gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) (100 [micro]g gonadorelin, Fertagyl, MSD Animal Health, Unterschleissheim, Germany) on day 0, [PGF.sub.2a] on day 7, and GnRH on day 9.
Idiopathic CPP criteria were taken as follows: 1) the onset of budding in the breasts before the age of 8 years in girls, 2) determination of at least 1 year advanced bone age compared to chronological age, 3) the peak luteinizing hormone (LH) [greater than or equal to]5 mIU/mL examined with chemiluminescence immunoassay method after the exogenous GnRH (gonadorelin 100 [micro]g) intravenous injection, 4) a lack of a history suggesting a central nervous system disease and the presence of normal cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) symptoms (18).
The girls were diagnosed with ICPP if chronological age (CA) at onset of breast development was <8 years and peak luteinizing hormone (LH) level was more than 5 IU/L (5 mIU/mL) in response to 2.5 [micro]g/kg (maximum 0.1 mg) GnRH (0.1 mg Gonadorelin acetate, Ferring[R]) and if brain magnetic resonance imaging was normal.
The injection of gonadorelin causes not only luteotrophic support but also prevents the luteolytic mechanism by decreasing of plasma estradiol 17[beta] concentration and hence prohibits the rapid decreased of progesterone (Alaam et al., 1999).
