Ovulation Induction

Helping Women Get Pregnant by Ovulation Induction

• Ovulation induction (OI) is one of the first-line treatments for fertility to induce the ovaries to produce eggs, resulting in natural conception or assisted reproduction success.
• Ovulation Induction (OI) is the treatment where medications are taken to induce or regularize the release of eggs in females with anovulation or irregular ovulation. It is routinely prescribed in women with PCOS, unexplained infertility, or hormonal dysfunction.

Who Needs Ovulation Induction?

The following situations in women can be treated:

• Irregular or Absent Ovulation – Present in PCOS and hypothalamic dysfunction.
• Hormonal Disruptions – Like thyroid illness or hyperprolactinemia.
• Unexplained Infertility – When no cause for infertility is found.
• Luteal Phase Defect – When the body is unable to produce sufficient progesterone to allow implantation.
• Mild Male Factor Infertility – Along with Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) for better success.

What is the Process of Ovulation Induction?

Ovulation Induction is a simple method to stimulate egg growth and ovulation to increase the chances of conception either through artificial insemination or intercourse. You will take medication to boost your hormones.

Here is the step by step process of Ovulation;

• Initial Consultation & Diagnosis – Blood tests, ultrasound, and medical history review.
• Medication Prescription – Based on the individual’s hormonal picture.
• Monitoring with Ultrasounds – Tracking follicular development to optimize timing.
• Trigger Shot (hCG Injection) – Induces ovulation when follicles are ready.
• Timed Intercourse or IUI – Scheduling conception for optimal success.
• Follow-Up & Adjustments – Monitoring response and adjusting treatment, if needed.

What is the Success Rate & Risks?

• General Success Rate: 10-25% per cycle, depending on etiology.

Distinct Risks:

• More than one pregnancy (10-15% with oral drugs, higher with injectables).
• Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) – Rare but requires close observation.
• Mood swing, headache, or bloating (normal mild side effects).
