IVF injections, specifically those for ovulation induction, typically start on day 2 or day 3 of your menstrual cycle.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Ovulation Induction: This is a key part of the IVF process. It involves stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
-
Timing: The injections are usually initiated early in the menstrual cycle (day 2 or 3) to coincide with the body's natural hormonal rhythms. This allows for controlled follicular development.
-
Purpose of Injections: The injections contain medications that stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple follicles, each containing an egg.
-
Monitoring: During the stimulation phase, the patient is closely monitored with blood tests and ultrasounds to track follicular growth and hormone levels. This allows the medical team to adjust medication dosages as needed.
