WHAT MENOPUR IS USED
FOR
Menopur contains highly purified
human menopausal gonadotrophin
(hMG), also known as menotrophin,
as the active ingredient. It is obtained
from the urine of post-menopausal
women.
hMG is a mixture of three hormones
with follicle stimulating hormone
(FSH) activity and luteinising
hormone (LH) activity found
naturally in humans.
Menopur belongs to a class of
medicines called gonadotrophins.
Menopur is used to treat infertility
(reproduction related conditions) in
women.
Menopur is used in women who are
not ovulating (not producing eggs). It
helps women become pregnant by
stimulating the ovarian follicles to
release an egg.
Menopur is also used to stimulate the
ovarian follicles in women
undergoing Assisted Reproductive
Technology (ART) such as IVF/ET
(in vitro fertilisation/embryo
transfer), GIFT (gamete intra-
fallopian transfer) and ICSI
(intracytoplasmic sperm injection) to
help them become pregnant.
Your doctor will be able to talk to
you about your specific fertility
problem.
Menopur is given only by or under
the supervision of your doctor.

4.2 DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Treatment with MENOPUR should be initiated under the supervision of a
physician
experienced in the treatment of fertility problems.
There are great inter-individual variations in the response of the
ovaries to exogenous
gonadotrophins. This makes it impossible to set a uniform dosage
scheme. The
dosage should, therefore, be adjusted individually dependi
