Orgalutran

24.6.2022 · 1 min reading

What is Orgalutran used for?

Orgalutran is used in both women undergoing infertility treatment and women receiving hormone stimulation. Its use prevents premature ovulation, which could cause immature eggs or eggs unsuitable for in vitro fertilization to be released.

How is Orgalutran administered?

This stimulating medicine is administered in the evening, and it must be administered at the same time every day. Take Orgalutran according to the stimulation protocol you received at our clinic.

Orgalutran is injected in the lower abdomen around the navel, so the patient must be properly instructed. Before injecting it, wash your hands and prepare the syringe with the medicine. Pinch the skin on your abdomen to form a small ‘fold’, into which you will insert the needle at a 90-degree angle. Disinfect the injection site and choose a different spot next time. Discard the used syringe and needle and use new ones for each injection.

How to store Orgalutran

Because Orgalutran needs to be protected against temperatures over 25 °C and light, we recommend storing it in the refrigerator in its original package.

What are the side effects of Orgalutran?

The most common side effect of this medicine is a skin reaction at the injection site, especially itching, redness, bruising or swelling.

When defence turns into attack or the 7 most common questions about immunity & fertility

Every day, our immune system protects us from viruses, bacteria and other threats. But at times, its defenses can turn against us—even against a deeply desired pregnancy. Immunological causes of infertility are among the most insidious: they are not visible, they cannot be detected without special tests, but their consequences can be dramatic - repeated miscarriages, failed embryo implantation or unsuccessful attempts at artificial insemination. The most common questions about immunological causes of infertility are answered by our doctor Karin Cerna, MD, a leading expert in reproductive immunology who helps women every day to unravel the invisible obstacles on the path to a child.

Do you know what the epigenetic effect is?

For many couples, using donated oocytes (female reproductive cells - eggs) is the only hope for having a child of their own. Patients often go through a long and challenging journey before deciding to choose donated cells from an anonymous donor for their family. Typically, these couples have already undergone treatment with their own cells, which may have failed once or multiple times—biochemical pregnancies, miscarriages, failed implantations, no embryo transfer, countless exams, and surgical procedures. The option of using donated eggs typically comes after couples have faced exhausting experiences that haven't led to their desired outcome.
