Doctor: Hi welcome to healthcaremagic.I have gone through your question.Ovitrop inj contains follicular stimulating hormone. Which helps in stimulating follicles in pcod ( polycystic ovarian disease).There are chances of multiple pregnancy aa it stimulates more than one follicle, and may fertilised more than one follicles cause twins, triplets, quadruplets.This injection may be needed for 3/5 days according to need. Success varies from patient to patient.Hope i have answered your question.Would be happy to help you further.Take care.
