How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Clomiphene Citrate 25 mg capsules are a solid dosage form, composed of two gelatin or vegetarian shells that enclose the medication. This design allows for convenient and easy swallowing, while providing a precise dosage of the active ingredients. These capsules are primarily used to treat a variety of conditions related to hormonal imbalances, including infertility, polycystic ovary syndrome, hypogonadism, amenorrhea, and anovulation.

Clomiphene citrate, the active ingredient in these capsules, is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). It functions by blocking the action of estrogen in the body, which stimulates the release of hormones from the pituitary gland. This, in turn, stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs, increasing the chances of ovulation and pregnancy in women with infertility.

In the case of polycystic ovary syndrome, clomiphene citrate aids in reducing the production of androgens, which can help alleviate symptoms such as hirsutism and acne. For men with hypogonadism, clomiphene citrate can help increase testosterone levels, improving symptoms such as decreased libido and erectile dysfunction.

For women experiencing amenorrhea, clomiphene citrate stimulates the production of hormones from the pituitary gland, which can help restore normal menstrual cycles. Similarly, in women with anovulation, clomiphene citrate stimulates the release of hormones from the pituitary gland, aiding in the restoration of normal ovulation.
