Ovulation Induction (OI)

Ovulation induction is the stimulation of the ovaries to produce multiple follicles, each containing an egg. Ovarian stimulation involves the use of fertility medications that promote the simultaneous maturation of multiple follicles. During the ovarian stimulation stage, the woman's progress is monitored with hormone testing and ultrasound and HSG. Ovulation-inducing agents are either in pill form (Clomiphene Citrate) or injectable form (Gonadotropins).
