What is Ovulation Induction?
At Aas Fertility & IVF Center, we specialize in ovulation induction treatments designed to safely stimulate egg production and improve natural conception chances.

How Does It Work?
Ovulation induction works by using fertility medications, such as clomiphene citrate or gonadotropins, to stimulate the ovaries and encourage follicle growth. Throughout the process, regular ultrasounds and blood tests are performed to monitor follicle development and hormone levels. Once the follicles are ready, a trigger shot is administered to release the eggs, followed by timed intercourse to maximize the chances of conception.

What is ovulation induction treatment in Pakistan?
Ovulation induction is a fertility treatment that uses medication to stimulate the ovaries to produce and release eggs. It is commonly recommended for women in Pakistan who have irregular periods, PCOS, or unexplained infertility. At AAS Fertility & IVF Center, Lahore, Dr. Naila Jabeen personalises every ovulation induction plan based on the patient’s hormonal profile and cycle.
Who is a good candidate for ovulation induction?
Ovulation induction is suitable for women who do not ovulate regularly or at all. It is most commonly recommended for women with PCOS, irregular menstrual cycles, unexplained infertility, or low ovulation hormone levels. Women with open fallopian tubes and partners with normal sperm count are the ideal candidates for this treatment.
What medications are used in ovulation induction?
The two most commonly used medications for ovulation induction are clomiphene citrate (Clomid) and gonadotropin injections. Clomiphene citrate is usually the first choice as it is taken orally and is affordable. Gonadotropins are injectable hormones used when clomiphene does not produce a response. Dr. Naila Jabeen at AAS Fertility Lahore selects the right medication based on each patient’s individual needs.
Is ovulation induction painful?
Ovulation induction is generally not painful. The oral medication causes no discomfort. Injectable gonadotropins involve small daily injections which most patients find manageable. Some women experience mild bloating or pelvic discomfort as the follicles grow. Regular monitoring with ultrasound ensures the treatment is progressing safely and comfortably at AAS Fertility & IVF Center, Lahore.
What is the success rate of ovulation induction in Lahore?
The success rate of ovulation induction depends on the woman’s age, the cause of her ovulation problem, and how her body responds to medication. In general, ovulation induction combined with timed intercourse gives a 10 to 20 percent chance of pregnancy per cycle. Success rates improve when combined with IUI treatment. Dr. Naila Jabeen at AAS Fertility guides every couple on realistic expectations based on their specific situation.
What is the difference between ovulation induction and IVF?
Ovulation induction stimulates the ovaries to release eggs naturally, after which conception occurs through timed intercourse or IUI. IVF involves retrieving multiple eggs from the ovaries, fertilising them in a laboratory, and transferring the resulting embryo into the uterus. Ovulation induction is a simpler and less invasive first step. If ovulation induction does not result in pregnancy after several cycles, IVF may be recommended as the next treatment option.
Can ovulation induction cause twins in Pakistan?
Yes — ovulation induction slightly increases the chance of a multiple pregnancy such as twins or triplets because it stimulates the ovaries to release more than one egg. At AAS Fertility & IVF Center, Lahore, Dr. Naila Jabeen monitors every patient closely with regular ultrasounds to reduce this risk by adjusting medication doses when multiple large follicles are detected.
How many cycles of ovulation induction should I try before moving to IVF?
Most fertility specialists recommend trying ovulation induction for three to six cycles before considering IVF, depending on the patient’s age and response to treatment. Women over 35 or those who do not respond to medication after two to three cycles may be advised to move to IVF sooner. Dr. Naila Jabeen at AAS Fertility & IVF Center, Jail Road Lahore, will review your progress after each cycle and advise the best next step for your situation.
