    Hi,
    Clomid is used when there are problems with ovulation, but no problems with blocked fallopian tubes. (In that case, stimulating ovulation would be pointless –- the egg and sperm can’t meet if the tubes are blocked.) If a woman has irregular cycles, or anovulatory cycles (menstruation without ovulation), Clomid may be tried first.

    Clomid is often used in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) related infertility. It may also be used in cases of unexplained infertility, or when a couple prefers not to use the more expensive and invasive fertility treatments, like IVF.

    Clomid may also be used during an IUI (intrauterine insemination) procedure, but it is rarely used during IVF treatment. With IVF, injectable ovulation meds are more frequently chosen.

    How is Clomid Taken?

    You should follow the directions your doctor gives you, as every doctor has a slightly different protocol.

    However, the most common dosage of Clomid is 50 mg, taken for five days, on days 3 through 7 of your cycle, or days 5 through 9 of your cycle. (With day one of your cycle being the first day of real menstrual bleeding, and not just spotting.) Ovulation and pregnancy rates have been shown to be similar whether the drug is started on day two, three, four, or five, so don’t feel concerned if your doctor tells you a different protocol to follow than your friend.

        * When Should You Have s*x While Taking Clomid?

    If 50 mg doesn’t work, your doctor may increase the medication, according to their judgment, for a successive cycle. Or, they may give it another try at 50 mg. You might think that more is always better, but higher doses, especially at or above 150 mg, can actually make conception more difficult. (See below, under side effects.)
    What are Clomid’s Common Side Effects?

    Clomid’s side effects aren’t so bad, as far as fertility drugs are concerned. The most common side effects are hot flashes, breast tenderness, mood swings, and nausea. But once the medication is stopped, the side effects will leave, too.

        * Clomid Side Effects

    The side effect you’re probably most familiar with is the risk of multiples. You have a 10% chance of having twins when taking Clomid, but triplets or multiples of more are rare, happening less than 1% of the time.

        * Will You Have Clomid Twins?
        * Should You Try To Have Twins?

    One of the more annoying side effects to comprehend is that Clomid can decrease the quality of your cervical mucus (which sperm need to make their way to the egg), making conception more difficult. Clomid can also make the lining of your uterus thinner and less ideal for implantation. This is why “more” is not necessarily better when it comes to Clomid dosage and use.
    How Successful Is Clomid?

    Clomid will jumpstart ovulation in 80% of patients, and about 40% to 45% of women using Clomid will get pregnant within six cycles of use.

    Using Clomid for more than six cycles is not generally recommended. If six cycles go by, and pregnancy is not achieved, other alternatives may be considered.
