I am 27 years old and have been trying to conceive for the past 3 and half years.I visited a gynaec and after both me and hubby went through tests,with everything being normal the doc prescribed Siphene 100mg tablets from the 2nd day of my cycle for 10 days. My periods are irregular.Is it safe to go ahead with the medication? What are the advantages and side effects of this medicine?
Hi, it is safe to go ahead with siphene. Side effects are there but they are not major, may be some mood changes or headache. But if you have difficulty in seeing, you may need to stop this medicine . But it's very rare. This is given to increase the size of the follicles. You can track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound and when your follicles is more than 17 to 18 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles. Be in contact with your husband for 2 to 3 days after injection. Take progesterone for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test at home after that. You can try like that for 3 you 6 months. Hope I have answered your question. Regards Dr khushboo
