Common questions about Ovulation Induction

Which medicines are listed for ovulation induction?

The listed product for this condition contains Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, supplied as a 5000iu vial. In ovulation induction, hCG is sometimes given as a trigger injection to assist with the final maturation and release of an egg from the follicle wall.

Is ovulation induction the same as IVF?
