what is Ovulation Induction
Ovulation Induction is a fertility treatment that helps women who do not ovulate regularly or at all. It involves using medications (oral or injectable) to stimulate the ovaries to develop and release eggs.
This process increases the chances of natural conception or can be combined with procedures like Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) or In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).
It is often recommended for women with:
Irregular periods
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Hormonal imbalances
Unexplained infertility
Who Needs Ovulation Induction?
Ovulation induction is recommended for:
Women with irregular menstrual cycles or absent ovulation.
PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) patients who struggle with irregular or no ovulation.
Women with unexplained infertility.
Couples planning IUI or timed intercourse.
- Those with mild hormonal imbalances affecting ovulation.
How Is Ovulation Induction Done?
Step 1: Initial Assessment
Detailed medical history, physical examination, and hormone level tests.
Step 2: Prescribing Medications
Oral medications (e.g., Clomiphene Citrate or Letrozole) to stimulate egg development.Injectable gonadotropins in some cases for stronger ovarian stimulation.
Step 3: Follicular Monitoring
Ultrasound scans to track the growth of ovarian follicles.
Hormonal blood tests to assess response to medications.
Step 4: Timed Ovulation
Once a follicle reaches the right size, an HCG trigger injection may be given to release the egg.
Timed intercourse or IUI is planned to maximize pregnancy chances
