Info: Since FSH and LH are essential for fertility therapy, human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) containing these hormones is heavily required. These substances, especially the biological ovulation of IVF patients, are indispensable. HMG will also help ovarian follicles grow and mature, thereby increasing the chances of pregnancy. This vital aspect of reproductive medicine helps struggling couples have a baby.
EFFECTS :
Mostly, HMG is responsible for ovulation: it assists with providing mild ovarian follicle growth and a few mature follicles. By promoting these measures, HMG greatly improves the chances of pregnancy for those women who have difficulty becoming pregnant. So for couples wishing to have a child, HMG is a must, as it does wonders in fertility treatments.
DOSE AND DURATION OF USE:
The dosage of HMG that is needed varies depending on the individual and the fertility treatment in question. Typical dose: 75–450 IU per day as an adjunct to IVF; the first daily dose ranges from 150 IU to 225 IU with GNRH agonist cotreatment and to 225 IU without GNRH covary treatment.
POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS:
HMG can cause ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), which may result in stomach pain, bloating, nausea, and weight gain. Side effects: headaches, breast pain, injection site reactions (redness or swelling, pain/sciatica), mood changes, emotional disturbances. HMG hormone, which causes a higher concentration of eggs in the ovary, increases the possibility of twins or even triplets.

HMG is sometimes used along with other fertility drugs to enhance the effects of the other drugs.
- Hmg and fsh: also used together with hmg, fsh helps ovarian cells grow and mature, so the potential for ovulation and pregnancy can be increased.
- Hmg and gnrh agonists: a gnrh agonist is added to help the timing of ovulation, and used with ivf and other assisted reproductive techniques to improve outcome
- Hmg and hcg—administering hmg and hcg together guarantees that ovulation occurs on-schedule, in turn, optimizing the likelihood of an oocyte being set free, and,, therefore, fertilized.
