I ovulated 24 when i had my day 21 test and i was still given clomid and on the 1st month (taken 3 months so far) i ovulated 96 so making a big diffrence

Has anyone been given Clomid when they are ovulating naturally? Did it do anything for you?

I am just starting investigations and although I have PCOS I think I ovulate (Am just waiting for day 21 to roll around so I can check). But at my first GP appointment, he mentioned Clomid even though I had told him I get a positive on an OPK, followed by ovulation pains, followed by a temp rise, so I was wondering what it can do if you are already ovulating.

Thanks in advance!

minx44 · 17/04/2011 09:06

robitussin is apparently a cough syrup,,hehe but the active ingredient guaifenesin in it helps to increase in CM

mrsloukknowles,,,this is my 2nd round an i have not much side effect except this decrease in CM,,it happened cause of increase i n dosage,,,

all the best to all..prayers with u all {hugsss}

Hello

Hope yous don't mind adding to your conversation. I am desperately looking for people in the same boat as me as its a scary time. Iv just been given clomid to take for my next three cycles and its really good to see what i can expect from it.
I've read everything and anything on the internet but its totally different to getting real peoples stories.
I just want, like you a little pick me up, to be able to smile again xxx

minx44 · 16/04/2011 19:46

oh,,hope this time it wud work for u

ive noticed that since i started taking 150mg my CM has decrease...and ive read robitussin helps...unfortunately its not available in my country,,,so feeling beaten :(

follicle*

minx44 · 14/04/2011 07:55

hello :D

22mm is pretty good, u got a good chance there,,,when i did scan last month on 100mg, didnt have any dominant follecule which measures above 10.5 mm,,,so odc said i wont ovulate (but i ovulate without taking any meds)...

anywyas it turned out that doc was wrong and i did pvulate on CD22-23,,,and due to my shorl LP, or may be cause egg wasnt that mature , no luck for us

so this time taking 150mg,,

lets hope it goes great for all of us and this time we all conceive :D
