What does “Diphereline down-regulation” mean?

This is a procedure used in IVF (in vitro fertilization) aimed at suppressing the spontaneous luteinizing hormone (LH) surge to prevent spontaneous ovulation, thereby allowing precise control over the timing of oocyte retrieval. Additionally, short-term pharmacological stimulation is employed to increase the number of developing follicles. Dietary recommendations include avoiding oily, fried, and spicy foods; instead, opt for light, easily digestible meals. Increase intake of vegetables, fruits, and vitamins, and drink plenty of water. Engage in moderate outdoor physical activity and get adequate sun exposure to enhance immune function.
