What is Clomiphene Citrate
Clomiphene Citrate is a non-steroidal selective estrogen receptor modulator that it is widely prescribed to treat ovulatory dysfunction by inducing ovulation to reverse the effect of anovulation. The medication is causing the pituitary gland to release hormones needed to stimulate ovulation, so there would be the release of an egg from the ovary, thus making fertility possible. The success rate depends on a variety of factors, but generally, the majority of women respond to treatment with Clomiphene Citrate. However, it has been established that the only (known) factor, which is seldom associated with a decreased response to clomiphene citrate is increased body weight. Therefore, weight loss is an important part of treatment with this drug. The other purpose of Clomiphene Citrate would be helping women with irregular ovulations or/and when having artificial insemination.
Studies established that Clomiphene citrate is the most widely used fertility drug and is sold under the trade marks Clomid or Androxal. The drug is also used by men but much less than women. The purpose is that this medication is an alternative to testosterone replacement therapy for men with low testosterone. The reasons why it is not used as widely as for women are because FDA approved only for use in women and doctors usually call it a "women’s drug” destined to increase fertility.
