Description
FERTIZOL 2.5mg Tablets, containing the active ingredient Letrozole, is a Prescription Only Medicine (POM) available at Gathimaini Pharmacy for specific medical indications. While primarily approved for the treatment of hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women, FERTIZOL 2.5mg is widely prescribed off-label by fertility specialists to induce ovulation in women struggling to conceive. It works as an aromatase inhibitor, temporarily lowering estrogen levels to stimulate the release of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) from the brain, which then promotes the growth and release of mature eggs from the ovaries. This makes it a valuable option for women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or unexplained infertility, often preferred for its effectiveness and lower risk of multiple pregnancies compared to other induction agents. FERTIZOL must only be used under strict medical supervision and with a valid prescription from a qualified healthcare professional. It is crucial to discontinue use immediately if pregnancy is confirmed.
