Hi everyone. I have been reading and like to share my experience w/you all...since we are trying to achieve the same thing. I am 28 and my husband and I have been trying for pretty much 2yrs. Finally we have help. I started clomid 50mg yesterday and in 5 days is blood work. Then, the same day my husband had to do a cryo. I'm excited. Good luck to you all!!! I'll keep you guys posted!

Hi, I am joining a little later than you guys, start clomid pills for this cycle on Sunday. My DH and I have been trying for over 2 yrs and I have had one miscarriage. This is my 2nd cycle. Last month I did days 3 - 7 (50mg) and did not do much in symptoms. This month he is putting me days 6 - 8 (50mg), with 3 pills on one day! Ouch... Why are you guys on clomid? Annovulatory, improve ovulation?

my dr put me on clomid to help ovulation along. i was on bcp for 10 years and have been having wacky cycles since. i did get pregnant in may but mc in june. so, i do ovulate on my own, he is hoping this improves the quality of my eggs and lengthens my luteal phase.

Hi all, I am 26 will be 27 next month. The re put me on clomid to help with ovulation b/c my cycles varied from 27 to 35 days after i went off the pill. Then when they put me on femera my first cycle was 23 says the next was 32 days and the 3rd was 28 and the last was21 so they decided to switch me to clomid to see if i responded better to it. I hope so.

Hi Ashley and eb! Oh my gosh... we are all the same situation! I went off pills after 13 yrs... and irregular periods from there on out. I still am suspicious that using BCP over a long period affects us someway... so many of my friends have had these issues. The month we finally went to RE, I was preg, but had a miscarriage in July at 16 wks. My OBGYN did not want to waste time due to the bad preg so here I am. Ashley, how far along in the preg were you? Eb and Ashley, what protocol are they using with you this month... u/s, tests?

**JenG**when i mc i was only about 5 weeks...very early on but still hard. this is my first month on the clomid, cd 5-9. on thursday, cd 14, i go in to see the dr for a mid cycle scan (pelvic ultrasound). that is about as much as i know for now. i am going in on thursday armed with a ton of questions for the RE! hope fully i will ovulate this coming week...i will start doing opks in a few days, just to be safe. and i agree about the bcp...had i known then what i know now, i never would have been on them in the first place. **lene**okay girl, good luck and keep us posted! Baby dust!!!

Hi JenG, I am only having a prog count on the 23rd to see if i ovulated. Nothing else yet. I wish they'd be a little more agressive but they say i'm young(26 will be 27 next month) and we have time. SO, we'll see.
