Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Yes, take Duoloton - L for one month.
That way, there will be heightened and better ovarian response when IUI is done next month.
For how long have you been trying to conceive ?
How many IUI cycles done ?
Tubal patency testing done ?
Semen analysis done ?
Did follicles get ruptured in the IUI cycle ?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care.

HSG was done in march and doctor said report is good.
Semen analysis also done, and that report was also perfect.

Thank you for the update.
Yes, please take Duoloton in this cycle.
That will improve chances of ovulation next cycle.
Then try for 3 - 4 more cycles of IUI.
Am sure at your age, and with normal reports, you will definitely conceive.
Take regular folic aid supplements.
Try and maintain normal body weight.

Brief Answer:
As below

Detailed Answer:
The values fluctuate as per the day of cycle on which the hormones were measured.
Do not give much importance to hormones, it is more important to see if the follicle was matured and ruptured.
That is the key point for conception.
Please consult a dietician for detailed diet chart as per your height and weight.
The tablet should be prescribed by your doctor, generally it is Glycomet SR tablet.
It is okay to travel after an IUI, no issues with that.
All the best.
