Medicines for IVF

On different stages of a stimulated cycle IVF program different medicines are used. In order to medicate the ovaries for induction the doctor prescribes gonadoliberin agonists (Decapeptil, Diferelin). For a stimulation of ovulation, i.e. a maturing of several egg cells, gonadotrophic medicines, which increase the level of FSH and LH in blood, are used (Puregon, Menopur). Follicular growth and a state of the endometrium are constantly monitored with the help of ultrasound and control of estradiol level in blood. In order to prevent a premature ovulation gonadoliberin agonists are used (for example, Orgalutran). On the final stage prior to a follicular puncture a certain dose of human gonadotropin (hCG) is injected to the patient. Usually, such medicines as Pregnil, Humegon are used. In order to prepare the endometrium to an ovum implantation medicines containing progesterone (Dufaston, Proginova, Uterogestan) are prescribed.
