hi, i have recently had a major operation, as after trying for a baby with my husband for almost a year and nothing... i went to the doctors to find i had a dermoid cyst in my right ovary that was 13cm big± this has now been removed, and after 4 months of healing we are due to start clomid... please share your stories with me, im feeling like i need some positive news to help me along the way... and feeling rather sad that I have not yet been able to become a mummy and let my hubby be an amazing daddy as i know he will... thanks ... x

Hi Dolly

I don't have any personal experience of Clomid (yet...!) but know at least 4 women who have got pregnant very quickly after going on Clomid, a couple in the first month! I wish you the very best of luck and enjoy your baby making!

Hi Dolly

Yes we are trying for DC2, have been for 10 months now. Went to see a specialist this week and looks like I need to go back on drugs I was on first time round to treat hyperprolactinaemia so fingers crossed that does the trick!
Good luck to you and hope you get your baby very soon xxx

Hi Dolly, as my progesterone is too low, am hoping that I will be offered clomid in June hospital appointment.

Ellie - do you know what your prolactin level was they wish to reduce (only ask becuase my dr will not medicate to reduce my level of 843, which seems a bit too high to conceive but too low to treat.) Sorry for threadjack there.

now, im taking some hormone tablets to induce my bleeding as of tomorrow, which i start tomorrow for 5 days.

then am taking clomid for days 2-6 of bleed. I have not been advised to have scans and I know most people have?

also.... when is the best ovulation days? as I do not my cycle days, most say average is 28 days? but some say 34? would you say to do 10 days after first day of period for the best 5 days of ovulation?

thank you in advance!
