Clomid not working

[Rjohn]

I am 35 and have been on Clomis for a few months.  I satrted with 50mg 2 months ago and now upping to 100 on month 3.  50mg was not successful and I was wondering if anyone out there had success when switching to a higher dosage of clomid?  I don't think I have ever ovulated and wondered if there was anyone else out there who may be in the same boat that has success or failure stories.  I want to hear them all.

I did not get pregnant until I was on 100mg Clomid and that was my third cycle. First 2 months of 50mg did not work for me. I also took it days 3-7.
I am currently 10 weeks 1 day pregnant. Good Luck!!!

Thanks so much for your response.  Can I ask why you did not ovulate?  I have PCOS.  Wondered if that was your reason as well.

[Harley-girl]

I did ovulate. However my cycles were over 40 days and by the time I did ovulate the doctor felt the egg was no longer healthy and would unable to be fertilized. Clomid shortened my cycles and brought ovulation on sooner.

Just to jump in here: I have PCOS also. Has your dr tried you on metformin? I'm on meformin right now and i was taking it for less than a month before I was Oing again. I have not been on clomid yet. Hope that helps a little. =)

Howdy sunshine!!!! How are you? Do you think you may start Clomid??? How are the temps doing?

Hola senorita! Temp just started the post O rise this morning. I don't know what she (my dr) wants to do yet. I might have to have another surgery. I will let you know next Wednesday! I am excited for your 2nd appt!! Will you get u/s pictures this time?

[Harley-girl]

Got pictures the first time of my lil' bug.   Next appt there is no U/S just the doppler.  :) Appt is the 21st for you???

Girl, you need to learn how to use a computer and e-mail me those pictures!! =) Yes my appt is on the 21st. Yours is the 22nd, right?

[Harley-girl]

I am computer illiterate. I have no way of scanning them in. Yep, the 22nd at 2:00. I am so nervous and excited to hear it. I know I will feel so much more relaxed after this appt. My doctor said that once we hear it the chance of miscarriage is pretty diminished. I was also be 11 weeks 3 days so that is pretty close to being done with the first trimester.
Damn, I wish your BFP would get here already. I am still convinced that June is your month. I can feel it!!!!!

I've been on clomid for two cycles first 50mg then 100mg still no ovulation. My doctor just tells me that if in 28 days I dont see a period then to call him and we will start on provera and increase my dosage . . . is this good advice? Is there anything I can recommend him to put me on

[BelleMR]

I have been trying to fall pregnant for over three years and I have been on Clomid for over 5 months and still NOTHING.
I have PCOS and don't know what else to take.
I am 35 years old and so desperately want a baby.
HELP !!!

I have been on 50 mg of clomid since november of 08'  but took a month off in feb., because i heard it can thin your cervix. I have been switchin my days of when i take them (EX: one month i try days 5-9 or 2-7)  I have had no luck gettin prego, but I took opk each month and no ovulation except i started ovulating in january for the first time.now Each month I get really bad yeast infections but no pregnanycies.  Do you think it would be wise to up my dose to 100 mg???

Hello,

This is my third month on clomid and nothing yet. I went to the doc on day 14th. He saw two follicles. The one on the left was 18mm and the one on the right was 14mm. I'm not sure if i should stop taking this medicine. I'm 241lbs, do think my weight is playing a vital role in this. He started me on clomid at 50mg the first month, 100mm on the second month, and my third month 150mg. I don't feel like I'm ovulating and is getting very depressed. I need some very helpful advise about using Clomid and getting pregant.
