Name = Ovulation induction | Image = | Caption = | ICD10 = | ICD9unlinked = | MeshID = D010062 | OPS301 = | OtherCodes = | }} Ovulation induction is the stimulation of ovulation by medication. It is usually used in the sense of stimulation of the development of ovarian follicles[1][2][3] to reverse anovulation or oligoovulation, but can also be used in the sense of triggering oocyte release from relatively mature ovarian follicles. In any case, ovarian stimulation (in the sense of stimulating the development of oocytes) is often used in conjunction with ("strict") ovulation induction.[4] Also, a few definitions also include controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (stimulating the development of multiple follicles of the ovaries in one single cycle) in the definition of ovarian stimulation.[4] Otherwise, ovarian hyperstimulation may still be a side effect of ovulation induction. By contrast induced ovulation in animals occurs naturally. Ovulation in animals is usually stimulated by coitus and can be manipulated for farming benefits. Reversing anovulation or oligoovulation{{Main article|Anovulation#Treatments}}Ovulation induction in the sense of reversing anovulation or oligoovulation is indicated for women who do not ovulate on their own regularly,[2] such as those with Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).[5] The medication which is most commonly used to treat anovulation is clomifene citrate (or clomid), which is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that increases production of gonadotropins by inhibiting negative feedback from estrogen on the hypothalamus. Also, where anovulation or oligovulation is secondary to another disease, the treatment for the underlying disease can be regarded as ovulation induction, by indirectly resulting in ovulation. Final maturation and/or release{{Main article|Final maturation induction}}Ovulation induction can also refer to the induction of the final maturation of already relatively developed ovarian follicles and their oocytes, as well as triggering oocyte release from the ovary. Colloquially, this is known as the "trigger shot."[6] This induction of final maturation and release of oocytes is the physiological role the LH surge by luteinizing hormone. Administration of medication for triggering of oocyte release avails for sexual intercourse or intrauterine insemination to be scheduled at ovulation, the most likely time to achieve pregnancy.[4] In in vitro fertilization, induction of final maturation avails for egg retrieval when the eggs are fully mature. Medications used for final maturation and/or release of oocytes include:
Risks and side effectsUltrasound and regular hormone checks mitigate risks throughout the process. However, there are still some risks with the procedure. Medications used to induce ovulation can sometimes damage the lining of the uterus. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) occurs in 5-10% of cases.[10] Symptoms depend on whether the case is mild, moderate, or severe, and can range from bloating and nausea, through to shortness of breathe, pleural effusion, and excessive weight gain (more than 2 pounds per day). There is also the risk that more than one egg is produced, leading to twins or triplets. AlternativesIn vitro maturation is letting ovarian follicles mature in vitro, and this technique can potentially be an alternative both to anovulation reversal and oocyte release triggering. Rather, oocytes can mature outside the body, such as prior to IVF. Hence, no (or at least a lower dose of) gonadotropins have to be injected in the body.[11] However, there still isn't enough evidence to prove the effectiveness and security of the technique.[11]References1. ^Ovulation Problems and Infertility: Treatment of ovulation problems with Clomid and other fertility drugs.
