Ovulation Induction

As soon as we have determined the best time for inducing ovulation, usually between 11 and 13 days of stimulation, FSH treatment is stopped. Injecting a high dose of hCG then triggers ovulation.

Please note

The hCG injection is due at a certain time. You will find the exact details in the stimulation plan. If you have any doubts, you can calculate 36 hours back from your egg aspiration appointment to determine the precise time for triggering ovulation.

If you have any questions, please call us asap. The hCG injection is crucial for successful egg retrieval at puncture.

You can administer the injection yourself but make sure you inject the needle deep into the muscle to avoid discomfort.
