HMG – ( MENOTROPIN FOR INJECTION IP 75 IU AND SODIUM CHLORIDE INJECTION IP 0.9% W/V 2ML AMPOULE ) – LUPIN

HMG (Human Menopausal Gonadotropin) by Lupin contains Menotropin 75 IU, a purified combination of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), along with a 2 ml Sodium Chloride Injection used as a diluent. It is commonly prescribed in infertility treatment for women who require controlled ovarian stimulation and for men with certain hormonal deficiencies affecting sperm production. HMG is widely used in assisted reproductive technologies (ART), including IVF, ICSI, and controlled ovulation induction.

How It Works?

HMG mimics natural reproductive hormones:

In Women- FSH component stimulates the growth and development of ovarian follicles. LH component supports follicular maturation and helps trigger hormonal changes required for ovulation. Together, these hormones help the ovaries produce mature eggs, improving the chances of ovulation and successful conception.

In Men- LH stimulates the Leydig cells in the testes to increase testosterone production. FSH supports spermatogenesis (sperm formation). This combined effect helps improve sperm count and quality in men with specific hormonal infertility.

Dosage :

Exact dosing must be determined by a fertility specialist based on hormone levels, treatment goals, age, and response.

Women: Often given once daily for several days during the early portion of the menstrual cycle. Dosages may be adjusted based on ultrasound and estradiol monitoring.

Men: Usually administered multiple times per week over several months, often in combination with hCG.

Note: Never self-inject or change dosage without medical supervision. Regular monitoring is essential to avoid overstimulation.

Benefits :

• Stimulates ovulation in women who do not ovulate naturally.
• Supports multiple follicle development, helpful in IVF and ART procedures.
• Improves sperm production in men with hormonal infertility.
• Enhances fertility outcomes when combined with hCG and other fertility medications.
• High-quality purification ensures consistent hormone activity.

Side Effects :

Like all fertility medications, HMG may cause side effects. Common and less common reactions include:

• Headache
• Bloating
• Abdominal/pelvic discomfort
• Injection site reactions (pain, redness)

If any severe symptoms occur, contact your doctor immediately.

Conclusion :

HMG (Menotropin for Injection 75 IU) from Lupin is an effective and widely trusted fertility medication used to stimulate ovulation in women and enhance sperm production in men. When used under proper medical supervision, it significantly improves the chances of successful conception, particularly in assisted reproductive treatments. Regular monitoring and guidance from a fertility specialist ensure safe and optimal outcomes.
