What Chinese medicine can promote ovulation?

If a couple wants a baby, the male's sperm and the female's egg need to combine to form a fertilized egg, and then the woman will give birth to the baby after ten months of pregnancy. Among them, male sperm and female eggs are both indispensable. However, many women have poor ovulation or even penultimate ovulation. In the face of this situation, some measures need to be taken to regulate it. It is more common to use traditional Chinese medicine to promote ovulation. So what traditional Chinese medicine can promote ovulation?
