Follitropin beta injection is used to treat infertility in both men and women. Follitropin beta is a man-made hormone called follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). FSH is produced in the body by the pituitary gland. FSH helps to develop eggs in the ovaries of women and sperm in the testes of men. Follitropin beta replaces natural FSH in the body.

Follitropin beta will help develop eggs in women who have not been able to become pregnant because of problems with ovulation. Some women will use follitropin beta while enrolled in a fertility program called Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART). ART uses procedures such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or embryo transfer (ET). Follitropin beta is used together with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in these procedures.
