Remedies for Stimulate Ovulation
The most commonly used method to stimulate ovulation is the administration of clomiphene citrate, an oral fertility drug. This drug also helps to correct a faulty ovulation process and improve egg production. Its efficacy decreases with frequent usage and it is of no help after six cycles or so. In addition to this, using this drug for more than twelve cycles can increase your risk of ovarian cancer.
Some non-ovulating women do not respond to clomifene and in such cases gonadotropin treatment is recommended. If you have a hormonal imbalance due to the malfunctioning of the pituitary, you can consider this type of treatment.
There are also various other anti-oestrogen and hormonal therapies that induce ovulation. Anti-oestrogens are used to stimulate ovulation in women who have irregular periods. If you have polycystic ovaries and your menstrual cycle has stopped, this would probably be your best bet as it has a high success rate. However, it also has a greater risk of multiple pregnancies.
There are also various herbs that stimulate ovulation. The red clover is probably the most popular fertility remedy. It is high in calcium and magnesium and helps to nourish the uterus. False Unicorn Root and Stinging Nettle both help to restore and regulate hormonal balance as well as ovulation.
