Can Lupride Injection Cause No Ruptured Follicles?
Hi,I am 31 years old and we are planning for a kid for about few months. Our doctor suggested us to go Follicular Study from the 11th day of the first day of my last periods, which was on 3rd Jan. Since i was taking Ciphene 100 mg for five days starting 2nd day of my periods, i had 2 follicles in each ovary. In both the ovaries the follicles have developed about 22.0 mm X 17.8 mm, with endometric thickness of 7.9 mm. Our doctor gave me an injection anme Lupride (1 mg, 1.5 ml) on 14th Jan, post which even on 16th Jan, none of the follicle has rutured. Can anyone tell me what is lupride given for and what could be the possible reason for follicle not rupturing??

Hi,
Lupride is an injectable fertility drug that belongs to group of GnRH agonists. These drugs on administration prevent premature ovulation during the ovarian stimulation process.
By using this drug,we can control when ovulation should occur,so that we can use drugs to mature eggs and thereafter mature, healthy eggs can release from ovary. It is like a controlled fertility where we can decide when ovulation can occur. Your LH and Estradiol levels should be measured for further evaluation.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
