Femara and Clomid

Hi Ladies,

Has anyone tried Femara for ovulation instead of clomid? I had 6 IUIs using clomid before and got pregnant but unfortunately  I miscarry at 6 wks at most. So my doc suggested Femara on my CD 2 for five days just as Clomid. I was supposed to have an IUI on Tuesday. I had an E2 test yesterday counted 61.94 though I developed 5 eggs ,he said it's low and must have another tomorrow and see if it increases or else he would cancel the IUI . So does Femara causes a drop in the E2 level? Is this normal?it's my very first time to use Femara!
Any help will be appreciated !

thanks

Hi there. I'm sorry I don't have any personal experience with either med but I do have friends who have used clomid and in their cases it worked well for them. I would post this question in the fertility forum and if u can post the question in the ask a dr forum. I would also ask your dr too. I'm sorry I'm not much help. I hope u find the info your looking for. Take care and best wishes to you!

Hi, I used Femara but had a horrible allergic reaction and had to stop taking it 3 days after I started (my face made me look like a burn victim!)  Sorry, I have nothing other than that to offer.
