I'm 38 and always posting on here lol! Think i have just got myself into a bit of a state with TTC, it's been 19 months. Anyway, i recently had my hormone bloods taken on cycle day 3 at infertility clinic. My FSH was 20, not sure of the othever hormones, just was told they were high. The consultant has instructed me to start Clomid on day 2 of my next cycle, 2 tablets instead of 1 as my test results are indicative that my ovaries are struggling and need to be pushed harder. Iv'e not taken Clomid before. Would just like to know if anyone else has had high hormone levels and been told to take double the dose of Clomid on the first round ? Have you got pregnant ?

Going to take the Clomid, to hell with it! I will tell myself that it won't work and if by some chance it does, then it's a bonus. Sometimes doctors tell women they will never be able to conceive. It's kind of similar to telling someone they have just weeks to live. I know people who have been told this and 2 years later they are still alive. I also know of women who have been told they will never have a child and months, sometimes even years later they have fallen pregnant. No doctor, no matter how good can ever know how our body works. A message to all, stay positive and hopeful! xx
