This is the most basic treatment for infertility by which patients can attempt pregnancy through timed intercourse. Patients may use a self-help urine test kit to detect the surge in Luteinizing hormone (LH) which occur prior to ovulation.
Alternatively vaginal ultrasound examination may be performed to monitor follicular development and an injection of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is given to trigger ovulation when follicular maturation is observed. This method is the least invasive but is only applicable in the presence of at least one patent fallopian tube and natural ovulatory cycles.
