Fertility Treatment Medications Centre

After addressing physical and mental wellness, we address issues related to male and female reproduction that can be identified and treated with appropriate medicine, hence avoiding invasive clinical or surgical procedures.
Male-centred medication (focused on sperm produced by a male during ejaculation) or woman-centric medication (focused on ovulation or egg) are both available.

Women Centric

Ovulation stimulation

What is ovulation?
Ovulation, the process by which an egg develops inside the ovary and is released, normally takes place approximately once a month throughout the menstrual cycle. Ovulation is controlled by a complicated interaction of many hormones secreted by the pituitary gland. One of the main hormones is follicle-stimulating hormone, which activates a certain number of follicles inside the ovary. Even now, one of those follicles is continuing to develop.
A rise in luteinizing hormone (LH), which is also produced by the pituitary, instructs the developing egg to leave the follicle and travel down the fallopian tube, where it is fertilized by sperm.
Multiple egg development must be stimulated in order to improve the odds of a successful final output with In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) or Intrauterine Insemination (IUI). As a result, there are more oocytes (eggs) accessible for implantation, fertilization, and ovulation.
You require the proper amounts and quantities of eggs in your ovaries to ovulate, and the proper ratios of FSH, LH, estrogen, and progesterone are necessary to regulate the process.
The number, size, and growth of follicles as well as the synthesis of estradiol, the main hormone secreted by a healthy egg, determine the maturity and retrieval of an oocyte (egg). The ovary’s follicle, a tiny fluid-filled structure that houses the oocyte, is found there. The size of the follicle rises as the egg matures because the follicle contains more fluid. Ultrasound makes it simple to see and quantify this growth. The blood’s levels of progesterone and estrogen also indicate when the eggs are mature and should be retrieved. For this reason, your blood is routinely obtained during your treatment.

Factors affecting ovulation:

Hormonal abnormalities brought on by ageing and lifestyle choices can impact ovulation, as was previously shown.
Ovulation can become less regular as you age and produce fewer eggs, particularly during the perimenopause (the five to ten years before menopause). A hormone imbalance that affects the process, like in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), or lifestyle variables including stress, obesity, malnutrition, disturbed sleep, and so on can also affect ovulation.

How to test ovulation effectiveness?

Before beginning treatment, the fertility specialists at Nandhini-Pearl utilize blood tests, ultrasounds, and ovulation prediction kits to determine whether ovulation is malfunctioning. .

Ovulation medication

To help with ovulation or to generate more than one egg during a reproductive cycle, the ovaries can be stimulated with a variety of oral and injectable drugs. These are referred to as “fertility drugs” or ovulation induction medications. Medication can be used either alone or in combination with other medications because each one has a unique mechanism of action.
Depending on a woman’s menstrual history and the kind of cycle our fertility specialists at nandhini-pearl have planned, a doctor may choose to prescribe one medicine over another.

Medication types:

Oral drugs like Letrozole and Clomid can either stimulate the creation of eggs in people who are not ovulating or, in certain situations, stimulate the production of numerous eggs when it is desired. Patients who may benefit from injectable drugs that contain follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), which stimulate follicle formation in the ovaries.
Either unresponsive to or resistant to oral medicine, who have unsuccessfully tried oral medicines
At nandhini-pearl, your clinical coordinator will organize all of your prescriptions and provide you with directions on how to take them. Your doctor will give you a calendar with the dose that you need to take marked on it.
Usually, these medications are used for ten to fourteen days prior to the egg retrieval process. Some women, particularly those over 35, must take these drugs for extended periods of time or in larger doses.
One week or so after you begin taking these drugs, your doctor can urge you to undergo a vaginal ultrasound examination, which is performed at nandhini-pearl.

Male Centric Medication

Male Infertility Treatment

After addressing physical and mental wellness, we address issues related to male and female reproduction that can be identified and treated with appropriate medicine, hence avoiding invasive clinical or surgical procedures. male-centered medication (focused on sperm produced by a male during ejaculation) or woman-centric medication (focused on ovulation or egg) are both available.

Male Centric

Treatment to the sperm

About 30 – 40% of cases of infertility are related to the loss in male fertility. Men’s fertility is determined by four main characteristics of sperm: count, motility, shape, and size. When treating infertility, semen analysis is frequently the most important test to perform.

Medication

A physician may be able to treat male infertility with oral or injectable medication, depending on the diagnosis.
The three most popular medications are listed in Legacy’s sperm enhancement guide as follows:

The hormone imbalances in testosterone and LH that cause low sperm count and other fertility problems can be treated with human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG); anastrozole.

A medication that also lowers estrogen levels and raises levels of testosterone, FSH, and LH to promote sperm production; and Clomide citrate, also known as “Clomid,” an estrogen-blocking drug that can raise levels of testosterone, luteinizing hormone, and follicle-stimulating hormone to increase sperm count/concentration and motility and anastrozole.
