Ovulation Stimulation
After a fertility investigation, a suggestion may be to try to help by means of ovulation stimulation, also called ovulation induction. Ovulation stimulation is relevant when an assessment is made that the woman does not regularly ovulate on her own, which might be the case in connection with irregular menstrual cycles.
The treatment to enable ovulation is usually carried out by using a substance called Letrozole. The medication is taken orally during menstrual cycle days 3 -7. An ultrasound control is performed at cycle day 10 -12 to investigate whether or not an ovarian follicle has been formed, indicating whether or not ovulation will occur.
If pregnancy is not achieved after 4 -6 cycles, IVF treatment may be required instead.
