Follistim

Follistim is a brand of medication containing follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), which is a naturally occurring hormone that plays a key role in female and male reproductive processes. In women, Follistim helps stimulate the ovaries to develop multiple follicles, increasing the chances of ovulation and pregnancy. It is commonly used in fertility treatments such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The medication is administered via injections and is typically prescribed and monitored by a healthcare provider to optimize response and reduce risks. Follistim is an important tool in assisted reproductive technologies when natural ovulation does not occur or needs to be enhanced.
