Objective: We aimed to analyze controlled ovarian stimulation using GnRH antagonist in association with hCG (dual triggering) versus hCG alone (conventional triggering) for final oocyte maturation triggering in a population of unselected Brazilian women. Methods: This was a retrospective observational study of IVF medical records between January 2019 and March 2020. Data from 335 women with infertility were included for study. All patients were divided into hCG trigger (control group; n = 178) and dual-trigger (n = 157). Results: The number of total oocytes and the number of inseminated oocytes were all significantly higher with the dual trigger protocol compared to hCG-only trigger. However, there is no significant difference in patient age, type of infertility, number of in vitro matured oocytes, trigger day, endometrial thickness, AMH concentration, the number of follicles, the number of mature oocytes and the number of fertilized oocytes. Conclusions: Using the dual trigger protocol improved the number of total oocytes retrieved and the number of inseminated oocytes.
