Hello! I am new to the forum but I am happy that I am not the only one going through a Clomid journey. A little background information about me is that my hubby and I have been TTC for 10 months now naturally and my OB finally started me on first cycle of clomid 50 mg. My cycle length can be anywhere from 28-45 days. Sometimes my GYN prescribes Provera to induce my cycles. Long story short my OB stated that he doesn't believe I am ovulating so I am doing Clomid CD 5-9 and temping and on CD 14 (May 26th) I go the office to get a vaginal ultrasound and HCG injection and on CD 16 (May 28th) we DTD. I am so nervous about my appointment. I'm not sure if I will have produced enough follicles by then and if so will they be mature enough for me to proceed with the injection. I have been reading forums after forums on what worked best for everyone and I have added to my regime preseed which I used for the first time yesterday 2 grams and Robitussen. Any advice the wait is killing me. I just want my BFP!! Baby dust to all

Hello all! I just wanted to post an update. I went to the Dr. and had my ultrasound on May 26. Results showed four follicles on the right side and three on the left. My lead follicle was 17.5mm. I was extremely excited to see that the Clomid worked and I had one follicle that is a hair away from being mature. I just became really discouraged when the Dr. stated well next month we will increase dose of Clomid to 100 mg and in the mean time we will see what happens. She did not seem to optimistic. The Dr. went ahead and gave me the HCG injection 10,000 units. No action to report except my temperature has dropped (maybe pre ovulatory dip) and I have been having twinges in my ovaries. I am still taking Robitussin at night to thin CM, baby aspirin in the am, multi-vitamin and pre-seed. The hubby and I BD'd May 17 (day after coming off my cycle), 19, 20, 22, 25, 26, 27. Not sure how to really feel. I feel like a follicle size of 17.5 mm is too small for the leading follicle. Any success stories, advice, or words pf encouragement? Do you guys think I have a chance?

What CD did you go on? I think anything between 1.8mm and 2.2mm is a good size, follicles grow between 1-2mm a day. Anything can happen really, lets hope this month you get a good response

Thanks for the response! I went for my ultrasound and received my injection on CD 14. I am praying I get a good response as well!
