Pregnyl is a medication used by women to help with fertility problems. Continue reading to learn more about this fertility medication and its proper training instructions.

What Is Pregnyl and How Is It Used?

Doctors prescribe Pregnyl to help assist women in their fertility journey. Pregnyl works to stimulate ovulation — the release of a healthy egg to be fertilized. Typically, Pregnyl is used after a menotropin medication, which enables the ovaries to produce a healthy egg. Paired directly after one another, menotropins and Pregnyl create a healthy egg growth and ovulation process with a higher chance of a successful pregnancy.

The Importance of Proper Training

Hann’s Fertility Pharmacy is a Pregnyl medication provider that offers training resources for best injection practices. We offer a Pregnyl medication guide, training video and medication counseling services to ensure you feel comfortable and confident doing treatments independently.

Proper training is important for the following factors:

  • Medication effectiveness: Injecting Pregnyl in the proper location will allow the medication to work most effectively. Pregnyl should be injected in the upper and outer quadrants of the buttocks.
  • Patient education: Learning more about your medication before taking it can instruct you on what side effects to look for and signs that it is working correctly.
  • Safety practices: Understanding how to inject Pregnyl on your own can keep you safe, especially when working with needles.

Pregnyl Instructions

Pregnyl medication should only be used as prescribed by a doctor. When you consult with your doctor about this medication, they will order a dosage based on your age, weight, medical condition and more. Be sure to also discuss allergen information and health history before taking Pregnyl.

Please note that Pregnyl cannot help women with primary ovarian failure.

Some side effects of Pregnyl include headaches, irritability, fatigue and pain at the injection site. These are standard and mild due to the extra hormones that Pregnyl contains.

However, contact your doctor immediately if you are experiencing severe pelvic pain, nausea, vomiting or decreased urine output. These symptoms can be a sign of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) and should be addressed right away.
