The presence of many follicles can lead to the risk of higher-order multiple pregnancy and ovarian high stimulation syndrome (OHSS). This is correlated to a significant increase in morbidity and mortality maternal and/or fetal rate. For this reason, sometime therapeutic measures are necessary to preserve woman’s health.
