Benefits of Reprogon Injection

Female infertility

Male hypogonadism
Male Hypogonadism is the improper functioning of reproductive organs, that is, testes in males, which causes failure to produce sex hormones required for fertility. Reprogon 75IU Injection acts as the male sex hormone, testosterone and therefore, improves sperm production in males. This can reduce infertility and helps to treat hypogonadism in males. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully to get the most benefit.

Male infertility

How Reprogon Injection works

This helps treat female infertility due to improper egg production (anovulatory infertility). In males, it works by increasing the low sperm count.

Quick tips

Reprogon 75IU Injection stimulates the production of eggs in women undergoing treatment for infertility.
It may also be used to stimulate sperm formation in men.
Your doctor may prescribe more than one medicine as part of your suggested pregnancy plan.
Pregnancy following treatment with Reprogon 75IU Injection is more likely to result in a multiple pregnancy (twins or more) than if you had conceived naturally.
The injection is administered under the skin. Follow the recommended dosage and monitoring schedules to minimise the possibility of ovarian hyperstimulation.
Inform your doctor immediately if you have severe pelvic pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, sudden weight gain, trouble breathing, or decreased or no urination during treatment, as these could be symptoms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).
