High Fever/flu on Clomid

by Katlynn05, Feb 01, 2008 02:09PM
This month is my second round of Clomid days 5-9 and on day 7 I had a fever of 103 from the flu, days 8-9 also fever but it was 101.  I am wondering what the effect on egg quality and ovulation will be this month.  Should I be concerned that the fever would hinder follicle/egg growth or quality and skip this month or is it ok to still ttc?  I have not reached ovulation time yet.
