Ovulation Induction – Stimulating Natural Fertility with Medical Support

Ovulation Induction is a fertility treatment that uses medications to stimulate the ovaries and encourage the release of one or more eggs in women who are not ovulating regularly. It is often the first step in fertility care, especially for women with conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), irregular periods, or hormonal imbalances. At Indira IVF Centre in West Patel Nagar, Dr. Nishtha Handa carefully monitors each patient’s cycle using ultrasound and hormone tracking, adjusting the medication dosage to ensure safe and effective ovulation. Ovulation Induction can be used on its own or combined with timed intercourse or Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) to improve the chances of pregnancy. It is a simple, non-invasive, and affordable treatment option that has helped many couples conceive without needing IVF. With Dr. Handa’s expertise and personalised approach, patients receive the right guidance at every step of the fertility journey.
