Quick Tips
Fertigyn HP 10000 Injection is used together with another hormone called follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) for the treatment of infertility in women. In men, it is used to help treat delayed puberty, undescended testes or oligospermia (low sperm count). It is given as an injection into a muscle or under the skin. 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). If your ovaries are overstimulated, you should not have sex or use barrier contraception for at least four days.
