Dr Jasdev Singh
Ovulation Induction & Timed Intercourse
Tablets or injections help your ovaries release an egg, and scans show the right days to try. It is often a simple first treatment when ovulation is irregular.
Fertility Treatments
Helping you release an egg and time intercourse well
Ovulation induction uses medicine to help an egg mature and be released. Common options are letrozole or clomiphene tablets, and sometimes hormone injections. Scans track your response so you know when to try.
For many couples, this is a gentle starting point before more involved treatment.
Dr Jasdev sets the dose carefully and watches your response closely to keep the chance of twins or triplets low.
A plan that starts with your results
Your age, history, test results and goals are reviewed before any treatment is suggested.
Clear reasons for each step
You will know why a test or medicine is recommended, what it can do and where its limits are.
Care that stays connected
Reviews are planned around how you respond, your cycle timing and your next decision.
What this treatment gives you
- A clear plan for which medicine to take and when
- Scans that confirm your response each cycle
- Advice on the right days to try
How your care is planned
Every stage answers three questions: what is happening, why it matters, and what comes next. The plan is reviewed at each stage and adjusted when needed.
Confirm that your tubes and your partner’s sperm results are suitable
Start tablets or injections early in your cycle
Track follicles by scan and time intercourse
How the treatment works
You usually take tablets for five days early in your cycle. Scans then check how many follicles are growing. When one is ready, you are told when to try, and a trigger injection may be used. Treatment often continues for a few cycles before the plan is reviewed.
Who may benefit
Women who do not ovulate regularly, often because of PCOS. It is suitable when the fallopian tubes are open and the semen analysis is normal. It is less helpful when the cause of infertility lies elsewhere.
What to expect
Before starting, basic tests make sure this approach suits you. In each cycle you will have one to three scans. You will be told which side effects to expect, such as hot flushes or bloating, and when to call the clinic.
How Dr Jasdev works with you
He brings together experience in fertility and gynaecology, and he explains things in plain language. Advice is based on current evidence and on what matters to you. You will always know what the next step is and why it has been suggested. He sees couples from Kuala Lumpur and across Malaysia, as well as some who travel from neighbouring countries.
What to bring to your appointment
Your records help Dr Jasdev understand your history quickly, so more of the visit can go to your questions. If you cannot find everything, bring what you have.
- Your cycle dates and any ovulation test results
- Previous hormone tests and scan reports
- Your partner’s semen analysis
What couples often want to know
Most couples arrive with several questions. These common ones can help you plan what to ask.
Will tablets be enough, or will I need injections?
How many cycles should we try?
What is the chance of twins?
When should we move on to IUI or IVF?
Your questions about ovulation induction
What is ovulation induction?
It is treatment with tablets or injections to help your ovaries release an egg. Scans show when to try, so intercourse is well timed.
Who is it suitable for?
Women who ovulate irregularly or not at all, with open tubes and a partner with normal sperm results. It is often the first treatment for PCOS.
What tests are needed first?
Hormone blood tests, a pelvic scan, a check that your tubes are open and a semen analysis. These make sure the treatment is likely to be useful.
Is it painful or risky?
Tablets are easy to take, though some women have hot flushes, mood changes or bloating. The main risk is releasing more than one egg, which can lead to twins. Scans help keep this risk low.
Why see Dr Jasdev for this treatment?
He sets doses carefully, monitors each cycle and explains when it makes sense to continue or to change approach.
How do I book?
Call or WhatsApp the clinic. Treatment usually starts at the beginning of a period, so let the team know your cycle dates.
