I've just been prescribed Clomid to see if that helps with ttc. I've been prescribed it at 100mg.
I'm 44 and the blood test that the GP did said I am still ovulating, but the specialist I saw yesterday said that the Clomid might help stimulate a "better quality" of egg - plus at my age I'm probably not ovulating every cycle anyway. He did take a blood test anyway to check - it happened that it was about Day 21 (or day 18 in my case as I have a 24-26 day cycle).
Is there anything I should be aware or watch out for?
We've already got a ds of nearly 5 and I had a missed miscarriage 2 years ago - so this is really my last ditch attempt at a sibling for ds, as don't want to go down the IVF/IUI route. (Dh is ambivalent enough about antother one - no way would he want to spend the money required - and I don't think I would want to either, as I am extremely conscious of my advacning years).
