What is clomiphene?


Clomiphene stimulates the release of hormones necessary for ovulation to occur.

Clomiphene is used to stimulate ovulation (the release of an egg) when a woman's ovaries can produce a follicle but hormonal stimulation is deficient.

Clomiphene may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.
