Ultima-HMG
75IU Injection or hMG for short is used to treat infertility in women. It is
also known by the name of Menotropin. It is a hormonally active drug that
stimulates the production of eggs in the ovaries in cases of women who suffer
from ovarian failure. Ultima-HMG 75IU Injection is extricated from the urine of
postmenopausal females. The urine of a postmenopausal woman contains high
levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), lutropin hormone (LH) and also
gonadotropins. Ultima-HMG 75IU Injection is injected into the body through the
muscle.
Using Ultima-HMG 75IU Injection may show these
side effects; headaches, mood swings, weakness, weight gain, swelling in the
area where the injection has been given, enlargement of the breasts and also
breast tenderness. The other most common effect of using Ultima-HMG 75IU
Injection is pain in the abdominal area caused by ovarian hyperstimulation
(OHSS). This happens when too many eggs are produced and the ovaries
subsequently swell up. The other risk that may arise from taking these shots is
that of conceiving twins in case you were not planning for it. Before taking
this medication it is advised that you consult and inform your doctor if you
have any of the conditions mentioned below:
If your are allergic to menotropins or
gonadotropins. If you suffer from vaginal bleeding. If you have a ovarian cyst.
Dosage differs from person to person. It is
generally fixed according to the individual requirement of each patient.
Ideally, if you time your conception and try to have intercourse within 12 to
36 hours after Ultima-HMG 75IU Injection has been given, chances of you
becoming pregnant are higher. In case the first cycle therapy does not work
then re-evaluate it. You should have second thoughts about taking Ultima-HMG 75IU
Injection and consult your doctor if ovulation does not occur even after three
cycles of treatment.
