Siphene Tablet (Clomiphene): Treatment for Infertility in Women

Siphene Tablet is a prescription medication that contains Clomiphene Citrate, a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM).

Uses of Siphene Tablet:

Siphene Tablet stimulates the pituitary gland to release hormones that trigger ovulation. It increases the production of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), which are essential for the development and release of eggs from the ovaries.

• Regular monitoring through ultrasound or hormonal tests may be needed to track ovulation.
