Sixty-one patients with anovulation as a cause of infertility were selected for our study. Various ovulation-inducing drugs were used like clomiphene citrate, human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), bromergocryptine and leptadene. The response of the different drugs was observed by serial sonography for ovulation. Indeed there was a good response to clomiphene citrate, but those patients who failed to respond to clomiphene citrate and were frustrated with the use of hMG and hCG due to the cost and the complications of the therapy were put on Aloe compound and leptadene - an ayurvedic drug which enhances fertility in different ways.

Azoospermia, defined as the absence of sperm in the ejaculate, is a well-documented consequence of exogenous testosterone (ET) and anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS) use. These agents suppress the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, leading to reduced intratesticular testosterone levels and impaired spermatogenesis. This review examines the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying azoospermia and outlines therapeutic strategies for recovery.

Objective: To explore whether acupuncture combined with clomiphene can reduce the luteinizing hormone-to follicle-stimulating hormone ratio and impact the gut microbiota in patients with obese polycystic ovary syndrome.
Methods: This open-label, randomized, parallel-group controlled trial included 86 women aged 20-40 years with obese polycystic ovary syndrome and 19 healthy controls. Participants were randomly assigned to either an acupuncture combined with clomiphene group or a clomiphene-only group, with a healthy control group for comparison.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of transvaginal ovarian drilling (TVOD) on IVF outcomes in subjects with clomiphene-resistant PCOS and a history of IVF failure.
Methods: Between 2008 and 2011, 19 subjects with sonographically PCOS and a history of failure to ovulate to high-dose clomiphene citrate were prospectively followed and underwent TVOD at a university hospital-based IVF program.
Results: In 15 subjects who underwent 30 fresh paired IVF cycles TVOD resulted in a significantly higher number of oocytes retrieved (7.
