Hello, thanks for the query.
Yes, Fertomid ( clomiphene citrate) helps in growth of the egg which is arrested in pcos contributing to irregular periods and difficulty in conceiving. It is given for 5 days starting any day from day 2 to day 5 of periods and continuing for up to 5 days. Usually clomifene citrate alone helps in ovulation but at times you may require gonadotropin injections along with it for enhancing growth if the egg. When the egg is mature, hcg injection is given for egg to be released.
Progynova is usually given when the uterine lining ( endometrium) becomes thin as a side effect of fertomid. But it is preferred to be given by the end of follicular maturation rather than from the starting of the cycle.
Hope this helped. Good luck.
