Introduction
Foliculin 75IU Injection contains the active substance Urofollitropin. It is an ovulation stimulator that belongs to the group of medications called gonadotropins. This medicine is used to treat infertility in women who are not ovulating, including those with polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD), and who have not responded to treatment with clomiphene citrate. It is also used to help multiple follicles develop and promote fertility in women undergoing IVF (in-vitro fertilization) or other types of assisted conception. Additionally, Foliculin injection for male infertility is prescribed in certain cases to improve sperm count and quality.
