IVF Medication - FAQs

This depends on the type of medication, your chosen route to pregnancy and your circumstances.

Get in touch with us to find out the costs associated with your chosen IVF paths.

IVF medication refers to the various medications prescribed to women undergoing in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment. These medications help regulate the woman’s menstrual cycle, stimulate egg production, prevent premature ovulation, and prepare the uterine lining for embryo transfer.

This is both a personal choice and one that’s based on professional medical analysis.

To make this decision, it’s crucial to know the options, possible side effects, costs and likely outcomes.

This means accessing the right information and consulting with a professional.

IVF medications can be administered through injections or oral pills. The method of administration depends on the type of medication prescribed.

Common side effects of IVF medications may include:

  • Bloating
  • Breast tenderness
  • Mood swings
  • Headaches
  • Injection site reactions

In some cases, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) may occur, which can cause abdominal pain, swelling, and nausea.

No, IVF medication protocols are tailored to each individual based on factors such as the woman’s age, ovarian reserve, and response to previous fertility treatments.

The dosage and type of medications may vary to optimise the chances of success and minimise potential risks.
