Clomid vs Femara?

[juhnayrae]

Has anyone taken Clomid and then moved on to Femara? We did 3 rounds of Clomid (50-100-100) It only worked the first time on 100 (had really late O), but then failed the second time. We also found out DH has low count and morph (6.2 mil and 17% yikes) so we were sent to an RE. The RE is putting me on 5mg Femara when AF finally decides to show (took my last Provera pill 3 days ago)

Anyone experience more success with Femara than Clomid? What should I expect?

I tried clomid initially, but became resistant to it, so was also moved onto femara. Personally, I feel so much better on femara...and I seem to respond much better to femara than I did clomid. At 5mg, I have consistently produced three follicles - but normally, femara works by producing better quality follicles, whereas clomid tends to produce more of them. I feel much more optimistic about getting pregnant with femara
