Urofollitropin 150 IU is an injectable form of recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), derived from the urine of postmenopausal women. It's primarily used in fertility treatments to stimulate the ovaries and promote egg development in women. 🧬 Medical Uses of Urofollitropin: 🔹 In Women: Ovulation Induction: Used in women who have anovulation (inability to ovulate) or infertility issues. Stimulates the ovaries to produce mature eggs, typically in assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like intrauterine insemination (IUI) or in vitro fertilization (IVF). Ovarian Stimulation: Helps to develop multiple follicles in cases where superovulation is needed (e.g., IVF or egg donation). Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): Used in women with PCOS who need assistance with ovulation. 🔹 In Men: Hypogonadism: Occasionally used in men with low sperm count or insufficient sperm production by stimulating testicular function (in conjunction with other hormones like hCG or LH). 💉 How It Works: FSH is a hormone responsible for stimulating the growth of ovarian follicles in women and spermatogenesis (sperm production) in men. Urofollitropin is used to mimic natural FSH to encourage egg maturation in women and sperm production in men.
