Abstract

A case of pregnancy occurring with escape of suppression from GnRH-a therapy is described. Clinical pseudomenopause had been established, and the pregnancy was exposed to depot GnRH-a for 8 weeks. Normal pregnancy outcome demonstrated that successful implantation may occur in the first escaped ovulatory cycle.
