Hi,
Lupride injection (also known as
leuprolide acetate) is a medication commonly used in
fertility treatment to help regulate ovulation. It works by suppressing the release of certain hormones that control the menstrual cycle, allowing for more controlled and predictable ovulation.
In your case, it seems that your doctor prescribed a lupride injection to help stimulate ovulation, possibly due to concerns about the size of your endometrium and follicle. While lupride injection can be an effective treatment option for some women, its effectiveness can depend on individual factors such as age,
ovarian reserve, and underlying health conditions.
It's important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and to communicate any concerns or questions you have about your treatment. Your doctor may recommend additional fertility treatments, such as
intrauterine insemination (IUI) or
in vitro fertilization (IVF) if lupride injection alone does not result in successful ovulation and
pregnancy.
It's also important to note that lupride injection can have potential side effects, such as hot flashes,
headaches, and mood changes, so be sure to discuss any potential risks or concerns with your doctor before starting treatment.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
