Description

General information about Promifen in USA

Promifen (Clomid) by Alpha-Pharma Healthcare is a nonsteroidal synthetic drug that is very similar in structure to estrogen. Promifen (Clomid) is widely used as an ovulatory stimulant. Due to its similarity to estrogen, Promifen (Clomid) can bind to estrogen receptors in the hypothalamus. This blocks the hypothalamus from "true" sensing of estrogen and the hypothalamus in turn acts by stimulating the pituitary gland to release more gonadotropins like FSH and LH. FSH and LH stimulate the ovaries/testicles to produce more estrogen/testosterone.
This property of Promifen (Clomid) has been widely used to treat women with ovarian failure and induce ovulation. However, long-term use of this drug may not be safe due to increased risk of ovarian cancer.
