A 24-year-old patient with 17,20-lyase deficiency had undergone IVF with gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) protocol, prednisone, and gonadotropins. After the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) trigger, 37 oocytes were retrieved, 25 ova fertilized, and 17 embryos cryopreserved. After menstrual bleeding, the endometrium was stimulated with oral estradiol, under progesterone suppression with long acting GnRHa and prednisone. When endometrial width of 8.5 mm was reached, vaginal progesterone was added, while gradually decreasing prednisone. On the fourth day of progesterone supplement, 2 thawed embryos were transferred. After 11 days of human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG), estradiol concentration moderately increased, but progesterone levels remained high; therefore, no fresh ET was performed. Twelve days after thawed ET, hCG was positive, and 7 days later, an intrauterine gestational sac was detected, but the pregnancy ended in missed abortion. After 2 months, another frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) was performed, generating a normal gestation, which ended in successful delivery.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n
