Ovulation induction

Johanna Von Hofe et al. Obstet Gynecol Clin North Am. 2015 Mar.

Abstract

Before initiating ovulation induction, it is important to evaluate the underlying cause of a patient's anovulation and to make lifestyle modifications or treat underlying medical conditions, as appropriate. Here, ovulation induction agents are discussed with attention to their pharmacology, indications for use, therapy regimens, and efficacy. Adjuvant therapies and appropriate monitoring are also reviewed.

Keywords: Clomiphene citrate; Gonadotropins; Letrozole; Ovulation induction; Ovulation monitoring.
