Important Information
Urofollitropin For Injection should be administered under the supervision of a qualified fertility specialist. Ovarian response should be monitored regularly using ultrasound and, when appropriate, hormone testing. Treatment may increase the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), ovarian enlargement, and multiple pregnancy. It should not be used during pregnancy. Seek immediate medical attention for severe abdominal pain, rapid weight gain, significant bloating, difficulty breathing, or reduced urination, as these may indicate serious ovarian complications.
