Clomiphene for Ovulation Induction

Definition

Clomiphene for ovulation induction is a medical treatment that involves the use of the medication clomiphene citrate to stimulate the ovaries to produce and release mature eggs in women experiencing ovulatory dysfunction. This treatment is commonly used in cases of infertility due to irregular or absent ovulation, and it works by blocking the action of estrogen, which in turn stimulates the release of hormones responsible for egg development and release.
