Ovulation Induction With Timed Intercourse(OI-TI)
Ovulation induction involves using medications to stimulate the ovaries to release eggs at a predictable time. Timed intercourse refers to planning sexual intercourse during the woman's peak fertility window, around ovulation, to enhance the likelihood of pregnancy.
When OI-TI is Recommended
OI-TI may be advised for couples facing difficulties with ovulation or who have unexplained infertility.
This approach is typically one of the first options in fertility treatment, preceding more advanced techniques such as Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) or In-vitro Fertilization (IVF)
If a woman has irregular or absent ovulation, OI-TI can be used to stimulate ovulation, thereby improving the likelihood of conception.
For couples who have struggled to conceive over an extended period without an identified cause, OI-TI can assist by optimizing the timing of intercourse.
I-TI can be beneficial if there are cervical issues affecting sperm movement or longevity.
OI-TI is often chosen by couples seeking less invasive fertility treatments before considering more complex procedures.
How OI-TI helps
OI-TI involves medically inducing ovulation and monitoring for the ideal time to have intercourse to maximize the chances of getting pregnant.

STEP 1
STEP 2
STEP 3
Inducing Ovulation:
Treatment starts with medication or injections to stimulate the ovaries to release eggs.
Monitoring Progress:
The woman's response to the medication is tracked through regular ultrasounds and blood tests to observe follicle growth and hormone levels.
Triggering Egg Release:
An hCG injection is often administered to trigger ovulation, ensuring the egg matures and is released.
Optimal Timing for Intercourse:
The fertility specialist will guide the couple on the best time for intercourse based on the monitoring results to enhance the chance of conception.
