Clomiphene Citrate Tab
Clomiphene Citrate Tablets are a selective oestrogen receptor modulator (SERM) used primarily for the treatment of infertility in women. The medicine works by stimulating ovulation (release of eggs from the ovaries) in women who experience irregular or absent menstrual cycles.
It is a well-established, first-line therapy for anovulatory infertility, including conditions such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).
Clomiphene Citrate acts by blocking oestrogen recept in the hypothalamus. This blockage triggers the release of gonadotropins (FSH and LH) from the pituitary gland, which in turn stimulate follicle development and ovulation.
Each tablet contains Clomiphene Citrate 50 mg (commonly), available in multiple dosage strengths based on therapeutic need.
The formulation is typically administered orally under medical supervision, in specific cycle phases for optimal results.
