Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

Fertigyn is trade name for drug Hcg. When you take ovulation inducing drugs like siphene the follicle tend to grow more and won't rupture and may form cyst.

So to prevent this problem once follicle size become more then 19mm Hcg injection is given which help in rupture of follicle. Hcg is given before conception not after.

Hope I have been helpful.
