[Shyshy]

Yep I did too. Also 2-3 dpo my progesterone was high & I camped REALLY bad! I was a lil worried about OHSS. It went away the 3rd day.

Hi,

I have just started Fertomid 50mg for the 1st time, took my 1st pill today

Myself and husband have now been trying for a few years without any luck

Fingers crossed Fertomid / Clomid will work for us!

Would love to hear from anyone in the same position as us, or anyone that has been successful on Clomid!

My hubby & I have been LTTTC 3.5 yrs now. We've tried clomid 2 rounds. This is my 3rd. We've had no luck. I am hoping to go to a FS instead of my gyno. We are limitted because insurance wont pay for infertility treatment. Clomid has worked for alot of people, so it is definatley worth trying.

Good luck everyone

Welcome AF hello FS april 29th and Im think he may want to do IUI ASAP being that AF is here now. I would love that to happen but lets see what he says the 29th.

aw thats a shame, reason i asked is that mine were actually tiny weeny too on cd12 last cycle (8mm max).

some ppl are just resistant to clomid and it doesnt mean that you wont respond to other things. There is also Provera that some FS use, similar to clomid but seems to have a lot less side effects. But its used off label for infertility so some wont prescribe it.

I think of the three options clomid seems to be the most stressful tbh, seems like a lot more side effects etc so now youve done that you can do anything

i thought provera was only to bring on a period. i took it for 6 months and thats what all my docs said its to get my periods started to clear out the lining of the uterus because u can get cancer easier if the linning isnt cleared atleast every 3 months. provera does not make u O it drops the levels like u levels drop right before your period would start on its own. provera does have some bad side effects though. clomid did work because it cause the the eggs to develope from levels dropping telling ure brain you need to produce more stronger eggs.

Oh maybe I meant femura then, always get those mixed up, no idea why as the names arent remotely the same

lol ya it must b the femura ive heard thats like clomid it does the same thing

IUI would be great! How is your DH's ?
I've done 3 IUIs, but DH's are not so good, and didn't work

Hey peeps AF arrived yesterday after my 5th round of Clomid so onto round 6 i go.

Does anyone know how taking clomid on the different days effects things. Why are some people told 2-6 but then some as late as 5-9?

I'm hoping that after my 6th go if it hasn't worked then they will combine it with IUI for 3 months. What does IUI entail? xxx

 

[caz & bob]

aw sorry she got you hun dont think it matters when you take them hun tbh x x x

 

[Lucy_girl]

I read somewhere on this forum that there was specific reasoning for the different days that clomid is prescribed... I can't remember what it was, but I will try finding it again.

 

[Lisa84]

I thought it was something like earlier you get more eggs later there is less eggs but the quality is better xx

I heard that taking it earlier i.e cd2-6 produces more eggs whereas taking it later i.e cd5-9 produces one egg of better quality.
Not sure if that's 100% accurate tho xx

sorry AF got u,
as far as the days with clomid i think the docs do that depdending on if your O-ing on your own sometime and do it to get a stronger egg or more eggs to aim for. i wasnt O-ing at all and took mine cd 2-6 but didnt catch then moved it to 3-7 and got preg. cd 3-7 was a much stronger O for me. i dont know about every1 but thats what worked for me along with some green tea and EPO at night helped with CM

 

[keepsmiling]

I'm gunna take it cd 3-7 next month I think

Worth a shot xx
