Lutropin alfa is a recombinant hormone used in fertility treatments to stimulate ovulation in women and support testicular function in men. It mimics the action of luteinizing hormone (LH), which plays a crucial role in regulating reproductive function.
In women, lutropin alfa is used in combination with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to stimulate ovarian follicle development and induce ovulation. In men, it is used to stimulate testosterone production and spermatogenesis.
The medication is administered as subcutaneous injections, and treatment is closely monitored by a fertility specialist. Side effects may include injection site reactions, headaches, bloating, or abdominal discomfort.
It is important for patients to strictly follow their doctor's instructions and inform them about any other medications they are taking. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should not use this medication without a specialist's recommendation.
