Is your first fertility prescription ready for pick up at the pharmacy, but you’re still wondering what the heck you are actually taking?
- Clomid: An effective treatment that stimulates your ovaries to produce more eggs.
- Metformin: It can be used by some women with polycystic ovaries who aren’t ovulating properly because of abnormal insulin levels in the body.
- Gonadotrophins: They can be used by women with PCOS who haven’t gotten pregnant with Clomid and are still experiencing problems with ovulation.
- Bromocriptine and Cabergoline: These increase levels of dopamine in the brain, which helps to reduce levels of prolactin production and return ovulation to normal.
