Hi,
Letrozole is a medication used to stimulate ovulation in women who are having difficulty getting pregnant. It works by suppressing estrogen production, which can lead to an increase in follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) levels, which in turn can lead to ovulation. Premarin is a medication that contains estrogen and is used to treat symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness.
If you have been prescribed letrozole and premarin by your gynecologist to help you conceive, it is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and timing of the medications. Your doctor may recommend that you continue taking these medications for several cycles until you can conceive, or until other treatments are considered.
In addition to medication, there are other steps you can take to increase your chances of getting pregnant:
- Track your ovulation cycle and timing intercourse accordingly
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Eat a balanced diet
- Reduce stress
It is important to discuss your fertility concerns and treatment options with your doctor to determine the best course of action for your situation.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
