Ok ladies so this is cycle day one i go to the RE in the morning for blood work and U/S i asked today when i called what med he was going to  give me to try and it is call Femara any info on it would be great

I took Femara for three months and got pregnant on the third month. I had comlications with my periods and found that I was not ovulating. I went to a specialist for testing and he recommended this drug. At first I was nervous about taking it and did alot of research which i also suggest you do if you are going to take it. I have a friend at work here  ( we are both ICU RNs ) who took Clomid. She had terrible side effects, and I had only mild occassional cramping.  She had alot more trouble getting pregnant and I only had to do it for three months. The biggest pain is taking your temp every morning and making sure you have sex around the time of ovulation. I am now 6 weeks pregant and have no morning sickness or anything, just the occassional nausea. I think Femara is a good drug for those having difficulty with getting pregnant.

My doctor is going to switch me from Clomid to Femara.  I was curious as to how expensive it is?  Also what dosage have you been taking?  Thanks for any help.

How Long did you waited b4 you tested for BFP? I took 3 cycles of clomid w. IUI on the first one- with no luck! I just finished taking femara for this cycle and had an LH surge yesterday. Hope it works!
