What is clomiphene citrate?
Clomiphene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator that impairs the activation of estrogen receptors (ERs) by 17β-estradiol. It potently binds both ERα and ERβ (Ki = 0.9 and 1.2 nM, respectively). Clomiphene enhances the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, stimulating the release of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, culminating in ovulation.
clomiphene citrate men
In males, clomiphene citrate increases levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). These hormones are important for fertility and are present in both males and females. LH encourages the release of testosterone in males.
clomiphene citrate for women
Clomiphene improves the chances of becoming pregnant for most women who ovulate irregularly, and it carries a low risk of dangerous side effects. In addition to anovulation, clomiphene is also administered in conjunction with intrauterine insemination in unexplained infertility.
