Patient's question:
What is the function of Clomiphene Citrate Capsules? Who can take this medication?Doctor's answer:
Clomiphene citrate capsules are an antagonist of gonadotropins and sex hormones (ovulation-inducing drug) and can be used to treat:① Infertility in women with anovulation, suitable for those with a certain level of estrogen in their bodies;
② Luteal phase deficiency;
③ Testing ovarian function;
④ Detecting abnormalities in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis in men;
⑤ Treating male infertility due to a low sperm count.
Whether used by women for ovulation induction or by men for treating infertility, it must be taken under the guidance of a doctor. Blind use may lead to serious adverse reactions, such as ovarian cysts, ovarian rupture, embolism, electrolyte disorders, and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, which may result in consequences for pregnant women, including liver and kidney failure, pleural and abdominal effusions, and in severe cases, even amputation or shock.
