Hello
Thanks for your query.
Alivher contains sildanefil.
It is given to increase blood flow to the uterus , in order to try and increase the thickness of the lining of the uterus.
It is common for women with PCOD to have anovulation .
However, if there is no response to gonadotropin injections, that is a troublesome concern.
The next step would be a few more cycles of ovulation induction, and if there is no response to stimulation then, then consider IVF .
Reduce stress levels and keep weight in check.
Take care.
