121 recommendations, updated: the new ESHRE guideline 2025

The European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) fundamentally revised its guideline on ovarian stimulation in 2025.

The numbers

121 recommendations in total – including 46 completely new ones for 2025 as well as 29 updated on the basis of new study data.

What does this mean for your treatment?

For us as a practice, this means: we always work according to the current state of science. From the preliminary examination and stimulation to the avoidance of complications such as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) – every step of your treatment is evidence-based.

In concrete terms, this means

• Individualised stimulation protocols instead of standard dosages
• Closer monitoring to avoid OHSS
• Updated recommendations for triggering ovulation
• New insights into embryo culture and transfer timing
