Natural cycles (NC) are considered the best regimen as it is physiological, where natural conception occurs in. However, there are two most commonly employed methods to time the ovulation in natural cycles. One is to use ultrasound (USG) to monitor the follicular growth and endometrial thickness, with the use of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) to trigger ovulation in the presence of a dominant follicle around 17-18mm in diameter. Another is to monitor the blood hormonal concentration to detect the luteinising hormone (LH) surge associated with natural ovulation. There is scarce information in this area as only one randomized controlled trial compared these two approaches. The authors aimed to recruit 240 subjects, but the study was prematurely terminated as significant results were resulted in the first interim analysis when the sample size reached 124. The ongoing pregnancy rate was 31.1% in the group with spontaneous LH surge and 14.3% in the hCG-induced group (Fatemi et al., 2010).
