Menopur contains a medicine called menotrophin. This is a mixture of hormones obtained from the urine of women who have passed the menopause.
Menopur is used in cases of infertility to help follicles mature in the ovaries. It is also helps multiple follicles to develop during assisted reproduction, so the eggs can be collected and fertilised outside of the body.
Menopur is also used to treat males with poor sperm count.
In women, Menopur is used for:
• Infertility caused by eggs not being produced properly in the ovaries (anovulatory infertility and polycystic ovarian disease).
It works by helping follicles (which contain eggs) to mature in the ovaries.
• It works by helping multiple follicles and eggs to develop. The eggs are then harvested and fertilised outside the body.
In men, Menopur is used for:
• Low sperm count (oligospermia).
The most frequently reported side effects during treatment with MENOPUR in clinical trials are ovarian hyperstimulation, abdominal pain, headache, enlarged abdomen, inflammation at the injection site, pain at the injection site and nausea, with an incidence rate between 2% and 7%.
