Brief Answer:
Can wait until 6 cycles.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for sharing your health concern with us.

I have gone through your query and would like to offer some information.

If prior investigation was done as per protocol, response to the hormone induction treatment is observed over a period of 6 cycles in general. So, you can wait and watch for 6 cycles for response.

Hope your query has been clarified. Please feel free to contact for further information. I will be happy to help.

regards,
Shanti. V.

Brief Answer:
Ovulation occurs when the induction dose is optimum.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing back.

While treating for ovulation induction, response is observed when the optimum dose is reached.

Stepping up the dose is needed until response is seen or the maximum dose is reached. Regular follow up is necessary throughout the course of the treatment.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if I can assist you further.

regards,
Shanti.V.
