fertility drugs

Fertility drugs are medications designed to help individuals or couples conceive when they have difficulty becoming pregnant. They work by stimulating the ovaries to produce more eggs or regulating hormone levels that control ovulation. Common types include Clomiphene, which encourages ovulation, and gonadotropins, which directly stimulate the ovaries. These drugs are often used in fertility treatments like in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI). While they can improve chances of conception, they also carry risks such as multiple pregnancies or ovarian hyperstimulation, so they must be used under medical supervision.
