3. Fertility Drugs
Fertility drugs are primary step of infertility treatment prescribed to
infertile women to stimulate the follicle development of the ovary. These
drugs are generally used to treat problems with female’s ovulation and
frequent miscarriage. However in some cases woman does not have
fertility issue but her male partner need to go through IVF treatment and
in this case fertility medications are prescribed to enhance the egg
production to retrieve the more eggs for IVF treatment. Clomiphene and
Gonadotorpins are two most common fertility drugs suggested to women
for their infertility.

4. Clomiphene: Clomid and Serophene
are two main brand names of
Clomiphene fertility drugs. This
medication helps in stimulating the
hormones in your brain to make one
or more eggs ready to release each
month from your ovaries.
Gonadotropin:Follistim,
Repronex, Pergonal, Ovidrel and
Pregnyl are some brand name for
this medication which stimulates
your ovaries to produce one or
more eggs. These drugs are only
injected, not taken orally.

5. ART Methods
Assisted Reproductive Technology generally suggested when fertility drugs
alone cannot make a couple able to conceive. Several healthy babies have
been born as an outcome of ART methods till today. This advance
technology provides a golden opportunity to infertile couples who are
unable to conceive naturally to have their baby artificially.
The technology works by retrieving eggs from woman’s ovaries and then
combining them with man’s sperm in a laboratory under certain
environment to make embryos. The embryos are then placed back to the
woman’s womb. IVF is the most common ART method widely accepted
and suggested when all others methods have failed.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI), Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI),
Egg/Embryo Donation/Freezing, Artificial Insemination and Surrogacy are
some other ART methods suggested as per the cause of infertility.
