This review describes the current evidence regarding the putative indications of letrozole (LTZ) in fertility treatment. Prior to intrauterine insemination, LTZ is recommended in women with normogonadotrophic oligo-anovulation. In ovulatory women, LTZ is equal to clomiphene and may be used instead of exogenous gonadotrophin. LTZ may be used as co-treatment in poor responders prior to in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection. In addition, LTZ prior to frozen-thawed embryo transfer is increasingly used in women with normogonadotrophic oligo-anovulation.
