Lupi-HCG 5000 Powder For Injection
Description
Lupi HCG Powder for Injection is a medicine commonly prescribed for the treatment of infertility in both men and women. It contains Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) as its active ingredient, which plays a vital role in reproductive health and supports fertility treatments. For women, it facilitates the release of eggs during ovulation, while in men, it supports sperm production.
This injection is usually recommended by doctors for women undergoing fertility treatments such as IVF or in cases where ovulation does not occur naturally. In men, it can be used to improve sperm count and treat certain conditions that affect reproductive health. By helping regulate hormones, it improves the chances of conception in couples facing infertility issues.
Lupi HCG Powder for Injection should only be administered under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional. It is not meant for self-administration, as the correct dose and method of injection are crucial for safe and effective results. The doctor will decide the right dose and treatment schedule based on your medical condition and fertility needs.
Before starting treatment with this medicine, it is important to inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Your doctor should also be aware of your complete medical history, any ongoing treatments, and any allergies to prevent possible complications or interactions with other medications.
Some patients may experience mild side effects such as pain at the injection site, headache, tiredness, or mood changes. In rare cases, serious side effects like abdominal pain or ovarian hyperstimulation may occur, which need immediate medical attention. Regular follow-ups with your doctor will ensure the treatment is safe and effective, while also improving your chances of a successful outcome.
