    Clomid and Pregnancy

    Dear Friends

    Does anyone has any idea about this medicine clomid. Dr has asked me to take to improve my ovulation but when i read the pmaplet it was shocking. When i went to dr yesterday she says in her life time experence she hasnt heard of any after effects of clomid like birth defect etc. But she advised me to think and not to take if i am not satified. I that way i am very happy with my gyno. So please if anyone had take prior to birth or taking now. Pot ur advise and suggestions.

    Re: Clomid and Pregnancy

    Hi Sumati,
    As such I have not heard any bad experiences about clomid. Even we are trying for a baby... My doctor had prescribed clomid. I took the same for 2 months. Though I should say that I didnt conceive... But I have read many good things about clomid in the internet. You can also check the same.
    My good wishes for you...

    Hi sumati,

    Even I am put on with fertyl- same ingredients as Clomid. I read about it in the internet. Evn I was shocked abt the side effects of Clomid. One thing u should do if u take clomid is - Go for a scan in your third week of ur cycle, will help in knowing if the ovray has enlarged than normal
    - Pls visit doc if u get cramps in stomach/pelvic
    - Also keep a watch on ur eyesight. and if u r driving vehicle, should avoid if u r on clomid.

    I got these info thru net. This month I am on clomid/fertyl. I had pain thruout the cycle. Got a scanning done in 3rd week. everything is normal.due for 7 days. Hope its positive this time.

    Hope I have given enough info.

    love,Mahi

    Re: Clomid and Pregnancy

    Hi Sumati,

    Clomid is wildly used medicine to induct so called ‘Super ovulation”. This means that changing your normal hormonal levels in your ovaries will be produced more then one (as it is normal) eggs – so chances to conceive improves.
    There are few things to do before taking clomid.
    1. Check normal hormonal levels (amenorrhea profile)
    2. Check husbands sperm count and morphology (semen analisys)
    3. Salpinography (X-ray check for any blockage in ovarian tubes)
    4. Ultrasound tracking after starting the medicine (at least 2 times)

    There is 5 to 8 % increased chance of getting multiple pregnancy while using Clomid. You should have this in mind too.

    Hi ILites,Anyone here who conceived with clomid. Please give tips for conceiving with clomid as it has quite a few side effects like thinning of endometrium lining and drying of cervical mucus.-Devotee

    i would suggest to go for it if its 50 mg , before that

    Did your doctor checked/recommended for it?

    * possibilities on you
    * possibility on your partner ( i would suggest to do that before you go with clomid )


    there are few side effects but experts say that taking it for more than 2 cycle has issues but seems to be safe , chances are there for twins when more than one egg gets fertile using clomid :thumbsup
