I'm currently cd5 on my 4th round of clomid starting today. I'm praying that the dosage of 150mg is going g to be what it takes for me to ovulate before CD 21.

What is the difference between taking clomid on CD 5-9 vs. 3-7?

What has your experience been?

We will be doing IUI after an emotional rollercoaster with ttc.

@ashbrewer how are you doing? I'm still waiting for AF. I've spotted for 3 days but still haven't started. Gonna call Monday if she doesn't show.

@ashbrewer my temps never showed ovulation. I just started spotting again. I may need to take progesterone maybe

@drgnfly712 is it possible that you ovulated late and it was implantation?

@ashbrewer I have to have a scan too. Then they will decide the plan. I thought AF started Tuesday but then stopped later that day so I'm currently just waiting

@drgnfly712 I didn't ovulate either. They said my progesterone was 4.6. But that anything below 10 is questionable. Next cycle we are doing Femara and an ultrasound.

@ashbrewer I started a bunch of supplements this cycle so I wonder if that's why I'm taking so long to ovulate...idk

@drgnfly712 my lines are lighter too. I'm hoping tomorrow is the day. I may add in some supplements next cycle to see if it helps. My hot flashes are a real struggle. I hardly slept last night they were so bad.

@drgnfly712 yes 21 day progesterone. They won't do my IUI unless it's above 10. He said I just barely ovulated.

Нравится Ответить
drgnfly712
Anne·Мама подростка

@ashbrewer by levels do you mean 21 day progesterone? Mine was 7 and when I asked if that should be higher they said anything above 3 meant that I ovulated and the doctors were happy with that.

Нравится Ответить
ashbrewer

@drgnfly712 I did 50 one cycle and didn't ovulate. Did 100 two cycles and ovulated but my levels were only 4 and should be 10 or higher so they increased it to 150 now for two cycles.

@drgnfly712 definitely keep me posted. What does are you taking? I want ovulating either. Still hardly ovulating. This is my second dose of 150mg of clomid. Doing Famara after this dose of I don't ovulate more regular this cycle.
