OVIPURE HP is a highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) injection used in fertility treatments to stimulate ovarian follicle growth in women and spermatogenesis in men.
Composition
-
Active Ingredients:
-
Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) – Stimulates ovarian follicles.
-
Luteinizing Hormone (LH) – Supports estrogen production & ovulation.
-
-
Purification Level: Highly purified (reduced risk of allergic reactions).
-
Form: Lyophilized powder in vials (with solvent for reconstitution).
Mechanism of Action
-
FSH: Stimulates follicular growth in ovaries.
-
LH: Supports estrogen synthesis and final oocyte maturation.
-
Used in combination with hCGÂ to trigger ovulation.
Dosage & Administration
For Women (Ovarian Stimulation)
-
Starting dose: 75–150 IU/day (IM/SC injection).
-
Adjust based on response (ultrasound & estrogen monitoring).
-
Duration: 7–14 days (until follicles reach 17–20 mm).
For Men (Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism)
-
75–150 IU (with hCG) 2–3 times/week (IM injection).
Reconstitution
-
Mix with provided solvent.
-
Administer IM or SC (rotate injection sites).
Indications
✅ Ovulation induction in anovulatory women (PCOS, hypothalamic dysfunction).
✅ Assisted reproductive technology (ART/IVF).
✅ Male infertility (low FSH/LH).
Storage & Stability
-
Unreconstituted: Store at 2–8°C (refrigerate).
-
After mixing: Use immediately (discard unused portions).
Key Recommendations
✔ Monitor with ultrasound & estrogen levels (prevent OHSS).
✔ Start at lower doses in PCOS (high OHSS risk).
✔ Use under specialist supervision.
Important Safety Notes
⚠ Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) Risk – Requires close monitoring.
⚠ Multiple Pregnancy Risk – Higher with fertility treatments.
âš Â Contraindications:
-
Ovarian cysts/tumors
-
Pregnancy
-
Uncontrolled thyroid/adrenal disorders
