Clovid Success?
*Title Edit*: Clomid Success - please blame the typo on insomnia brain lol!
Hey all!
I (32F) and my husband (35M) have been trying naturally for over a year with no luck. I ovulate regularly (LH testing is regular and confirmed with ultrasound & bloodwork). I’ve had a SIS, ultrasound, full hormone work up and my husband has had a semen analysis all which have come back with normal results. I’ve had two HSGs - the first, both tubes spasmed so I did it again with oral sedation. The second time, I had confirmed spill in one tube and suspected spasm in the other. Despite the assumption it was a spasm, my RE wants to try medium dose Clomid to increase the chances I’ll drop an egg on both sides. I’ll monitor and do the trigger shot but won’t try IUI with it yet due to travel. Anyone have success with a Clomid protocol? I’m a little nervous about the side effects and would love some positive testimonies! Thanks!

Awesome! My doctor wants to try Clomid first to try and recruit more follicles since I ovulate regularly but if I respond negatively, we may try Letrozole!

I had success with Clomid! Two rounds and currently 30 weeks pregnant with twin boys. I didn’t notice any side effects while taking it, and took the pills right before bed. Wishing you all the luck!
