Sir in previous two cycles hcg inj was given but in this cycle lupride is given for ovulation induction. Does it makes any difference in chances of conception. Are there any extra medications required after lupride since it down regulates. Also is it a normal practice to use lupride for ovulation induction for pcos patients

Brief Answer:
Lupride is better for you

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Lupride is given to prevent chances of OHSS when suspected as Inj. hCG is known to cause OHSS and problems associated with it.

There is no much difference in conception as ovulation is achieved by both.

Only progesterone support will be required in more quantity when you take lupride. Hence start Duphaston 10 mg twice a day after 2 days of receiving the lupride Inj.

Lupride is better in your situation as there is possibility of OHSS. Keep me informed about what is happening so that I can help you in future also.

Brief Answer:
Drink more water and eat vegetables

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Constipation is common during this period as there is increased progesterone hormone from the body as well as from duphaston.

I suggest let her drink lot of water and eat more vegetables. This generally resolves constipation.

If very uncomfortable she can take 2 tablets dulcolax at night to relieve of constipation.

I hope your doubts are clarified.
