Getting FSH to rise following BCP

The question

Hi Dr Sher,
You've written that for women launching COS coming off a BCP something needs to be done to cause a rise in FSH for 5-7 days to facilitate PAF to AF conversion. You suggest that this be done through GrRH Agonists.
But could this not be achieved through very small doses of Gonal-F for the 5-7 day period?

Answer from Dr. Geoffrey Sher

Theoretically this might be achievable through administration of gonadotropins for several days longer while still on BCP but in my pinion would hold no advantage.
