Clomid

Hi ladies - I haven't been on this site for at least a year since I was planning my wedding but thought I'd start in again as I am now trying for a family.
I do have a question....I went off the pill a few months ago and my cycles have been 33 days, 32, 41 and 36. I had bloodwork done and the Dr. said it doesn't look like I am ovulating so he decided to put me on Clomid (50mg).
Question...I am suppose to take the pill days 5-9 and do it on days 11,13,15,17...Is this what others have been told?
Any info would be so helpful!
Thanks

Re: Clomid

I am on my second cycle of clomid now
first cycle 50 mg,
second cycle 100 mg (NOW)
and I will do a thrid if needed 150 Mg.

I was instructed to take the pilss
day #5 - 9
and then BD Day 13, 15, 17 or use ovulation kit to guide timing.

I bought a Clear blue easy fertiliy monitor to help guide, bc my cycles were kinda out of wack like yours,
32 days, 41, 33, 52 Days - all crazy,
so I figured at least with the monitor I pin point my O days,
and bc of Dr's recommendation on getting a kit.

Best of luck!!!!

PS
last month we did the every other day thing,
but this month we are going to do it every day of my o week

Re: Clomid

I was taking 50mg of clomid for the last 5 months, this month I did 100mg. We will see if I get preggo this month. If not, my RE said he will put me on 150mg next month. Since my insurance doesn't cover my RE I have to pay out of pocket until January when my new insurance covers it. If I don't get preggo, in January my RE will have me do the hormone shots....I am really praying I get preggo before that, I HATE NEEDLES!!!


ETA: the last 5 months I was taking the pill on cycle day 5-9 and BD on days 13-20 doing it every other day. This month we did IUI.....

Re: Clomid

My cycle is usually 30 or 31 days. This is my first cycle on Clomid. I took 100mg on days 3-8. My RE took blood and sono's on days 12 through 16. I still hadn't O'd on the 16th so I got a shot of HCG to get the eggs moving. We decided to do IUI yesterday and today. Now for the long two week wait!!! P.S. You probably should use an OPK since my RE said Clomid can make your cycle a little longer.
