Product Introduction

ZyhMG HP 75IU Injection contains the active substance menotrophin, an ovulation-stimulating medicine belonging to a group of drugs called gonadotropins. It is a highly purified combination of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH), which are natural hormones that support normal reproductive function in both women and men. This injection is commonly prescribed to treat infertility in women who do not ovulate spontaneously, including patients with polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) who have not responded to clomiphene citrate. It is also used in assisted reproductive techniques such as IVF to stimulate the development of multiple follicles and improve the chances of conception. In men, it may be used to treat infertility caused by low sperm count. The exact dosage and treatment schedule are determined by a fertility specialist based on individual hormone levels and response. This medicine is administered as an injection under medical supervision, usually by a trained healthcare professional, with regular monitoring through blood tests and ultrasound scans to reduce risks and ensure effectiveness.

Do not use ZyhMG HP 75IU Injection if you are allergic to menotrophin or any of its ingredients. It should also not be used if you have tumours of the pituitary gland, hypothalamus, uterus, ovaries, breasts, testicles, or prostate. Before starting treatment, doctors will check thyroid function, hormone levels, and rule out pituitary or hypothalamic disorders. This medicine should not be used in cases of ovarian cysts not related to PCOD, unexplained vaginal bleeding, early menopause, removal of the womb, or during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Inform your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms such as abdominal pain or swelling, rapid weight gain, diarrhoea, breathing difficulty, or reduced urination, as these may indicate ovarian hyperstimulation. Patients should also inform their doctor about any history of liver disease or blood clotting disorders before starting treatment. Availability and pricing may vary by location and pharmacy. If this injection is not suitable, your doctor may recommend an alternative based on your fertility treatment plan.
