Anyone ever had their Clomid dose reduced to 25mg???

[mojo86]

Hi ladies thanks for all the replies not been on here much as was becoming obsessive again I got my results back today and levels indicate I ovulated on 25mg and more than likely 2 eggs as levels still elevated but no where near as bad as last month apparently!

I know this is good news but AF arrived so I am not pregnant this month. Im so fed up this month I just dont understand why I havent managed to fall pregnant if I have ovulated every month on clomid. The nurse also told me today that they allow up to 12 cycles on clomid which I have never heard of before!? Anyone know any more about this?? xx

Hi !! That's good news you ovulated on 25 mg !!! Docters usually only want people to use it for 6 month but can go upto 12 month it's more for
People who don't ovulate on clomid and are in 150 mg that only use it for 6 month......... Are you using progestrone cream
Or anything else in your cycles ??

Hi thanks for your reply its just everything im reading online is saying no more than six months. Im so down just now about the whole thing. I have this nagging feeling that something else is wrong! I know im prob just being silly. I am not using progesterone cream or anything else? Only Preseed. Do you think I should be using progesterone? Would that help? xx

Hi,, Iam a nurse and by what accounts it's no longer than 12 months in a row should it be used becoz after that time it opens more risks ' ..... Erm well if you have pcos then that means low progestrone which can mean you ovulate then don't build enough progestrone to implant and carry a baby (like me ) ...... So I use natural progestrone cream about 2-3 days after my postive ovulation test then use it twice a day then on the day of due af I will test for pregnany if neg wait 2 more days and test then if neg again stop the cream and start te whole process again but if you do get pregnant you have to use the cream till 14-16 week ... But honestly it does work you can buy it on amazon eg it worked 1st time

Hey thanks for all your advice!! Did you use progesterone cream while you were on Clomid? x

 

[bettybee1]

Yes I got put on 50 mg of clomid I used preseed everytime I had sex , we had sex everyday lol didn't Want too miss then after I got my lh surge I waited 2 days and used progestrone cream in a morning and night I overstimulated and endend up in hosptial but that's when I found put I was pregnant but if I hadn't gone to hosptial I would of waited 14s after lh surge to test !!! Iam. Currently on cd11 of using 25 mg clomid so gunna do the same this time am very hopefully though they say 50% of pregnancies are lost without even realising this is becoz the egg will fertize ten. Start to implant then come straight away as there's not enough progestrone to keep the pregnancy going and women with pcos are more likely to miscarry due to low progestrone so I think I plays a very important part good luck I hope you decide to use it remember to get natural progestrone though what cycle day are you currently on. ???

Hey I think I may give the cream a try I am on cd4 and day 2 of clomid 25mg. Thanks! x

 

[bettybee1]

Hi any updates yet have you ovulated ??? Did you buy the cream x

 

[mojo86]

Hi I am on cd 12 today and dont think I have ovulated yet. Dont usually ovulate until cd18-20 with a 31/32 day cycle. Didnt try the cream this month as this month my OH is now taking wellman tablets, im taking extra vitamin B and Robitussin syrup and we are still using preseed. So I thought that was enough extra this month if no luck will try the cream next month lol. How are you?? x

hi, i wonder if i could ask you a question? i have been on clomid for over 12 cycles, and the stuff you find/hear on here is quite frightening. people often say im high risk for cancer due to this. but this is over ten years, and i have had a 3 children from, which i was led to believe reduces risks, also along with breast feeding. my gynae has re assured us and said clomid is lower end of scale compared to other infertilty drugs and is happy for us to continue, just wondered your views much appreciated
