Klomen 50 mg Clomiphene Citrate (10 Tablets)

Klomen 50 mg is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient Clomiphene Citrate. It is a well-known and widely used drug primarily for the treatment of female infertility due to anovulation (failure to ovulate). This 10-tablet pack is manufactured by Koçak Farma.

This medication is also widely used “off-label” by men as a Post-Cycle Therapy (PCT) agent to help restore natural testosterone production.

Product Overview: Klomen 50 mg (Clomiphene Citrate)

Klomen 50 mg is a non-steroidal medication classified as a SERM (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator). Its function depends entirely on the context of its use.

• For Female Infertility (Primary Use): Klomen is a first-line treatment for women who cannot get pregnant because they are not ovulating properly. It works by stimulating the hormones necessary to trigger the release of an egg from the ovary.
• For Male Use (Off-Label / PCT): In men, Klomen is used to counteract the hormonal suppression caused by anabolic steroid use. It helps to “restart” the body’s own natural testosterone production.

How Does Klomen 50 mg (Clomiphene Citrate) Work?

Klomen (Clomiphene Citrate) works by selectively blocking estrogen receptors in different parts of the body.

• In Women: It blocks estrogen receptors in the hypothalamus (a part of the brain). This “tricks” the brain into thinking estrogen levels are low. In response, the brain releases more Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH), which in turn stimulates the pituitary gland to produce more FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) and LH (Luteinizing Hormone). This surge of hormones is what stimulates the ovaries to develop and release an egg.
• In Men (PCT): It works similarly by blocking estrogen receptors at the pituitary gland. This action prevents estrogen’s negative feedback, leading to an increased release of LH and FSH, which then signal the testes (leydig cells) to produce more testosterone.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about Klomen 50 mg

Is Klomen the same as Clomid?

Yes, Klomen (by Koçak Farma) and Clomid (by Sanofi-Aventis) are different brand names for the same active ingredient, Clomiphene Citrate (50 mg). They are medically equivalent.

How does Klomen 50 mg help with fertility?

It works by stimulating the hormones (FSH and LH) that are necessary to make your ovaries develop a mature egg and ovulate (release it). It is only for women whose infertility is caused by a problem with ovulation.

What are the common side effects of Klomen?

Common side effects can include hot flashes, bloating, mood swings, and headaches. A more serious, though less common, side effect is visual disturbances (blurred vision, spots, or “floaters”). If you experience any vision changes, you must stop taking the medication and contact your doctor immediately.

Does Klomen increase the chance of twins?

Yes. By stimulating the ovaries, Klomen can sometimes cause the release of more than one egg. This significantly increases the chance of a multiple pregnancy (twins, triplets, etc.).

Important Safety Information

Warning: Do not take Klomen 50 mg if you are already pregnant. It is only used to help you become pregnant.

Before taking Klomen, tell your doctor about your full medical history, especially:

• If you have a history of ovarian cysts (not related to PCOS).
• If you have abnormal uterine bleeding.
• If you have liver disease.
• If you experience any visual disturbances (you must stop treatment).

Klomen can cause Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS), a rare but serious condition. Seek medical help if you experience severe pelvic pain, nausea, vomiting, or rapid weight gain.
