In recent times, there have been many protocols developed for ovulation induction in IVF, with the main objective of getting more oocytes in the same cycle without premature luteinization. Nowadays there is a wide variety of medications used for this purpose that have made IVF easier and more successful. In this chapter we try to introduce some of these ovulation induction protocols as well as some alternatives.
