Patients were grouped as: Group 1\u2013same protocol repeated; Group 2\u2010protocol switched. Follicular asynchrony was defined as \u226450% of stimulated follicles \u226514\u2009mm at cancellation. Women with \u22643 total stimulated follicles at cancellation were excluded. Follicular maturation rate in each cycle was the proportion of follicles \u226514\u2009mm among all stimulated follicles at cancellation\/trigger. Primary outcome was the difference in follicular maturation rate between the OPU and canceled cycles, representing synchrony improvement. Treatment outcomes were compared; analysis of variance (ANOVA) controlled for confounders.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Overall, 95 patients met the inclusion criteria: 43 (45.26%) in Group 1, and 52 (54.74%) in Group 2.
