title: Induction Of ovulation.
abstract: Sixty-one patients with anovulation as a cause of infertility were selected for our study. Various ovulation-inducing drugs were used like clomiphene citrate, human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), bromergocryptine and leptadene. The response of the different drugs was observed by serial sonography for ovulation. Indeed there was a good response to clomiphene citrate, but those patients who failed to respond to clomiphene citrate and were frustrated with the use of hMG and hCG due to the cost and the complications of the therapy were put on Aloe compound and leptadene - an ayurvedic drug which enhances fertility in different ways.
