The administration of fertility medications varies depending on the type:
Oral Medications: Clomiphene citrate and letrozole are usually taken orally for 5 days at the beginning of the menstrual cycle.
Injectable Medications: Gonadotropins are administered via subcutaneous or intramuscular injections, often starting on the second or third day of the menstrual cycle and continuing for about 7-14 days.
Insulin Sensitizers: Metformin is taken orally and may be prescribed for extended durations, often in conjunction with other fertility treatments.
Prolactin Inhibitors: Bromocriptine is usually taken orally and may be required for several months to normalize prolactin levels.
