" Hello, Te only advise i will give you is to go with your Gut instinct, Me and my husband tried Clomid, and Metforman and was back and forth to the Gyno for 12 months, he insisted that we change doses etc etc, after trying to have a baby ofter 3-4 yrs trying, after We were not sucsesfull with the above products we started looking at IVF and started to have all the tests and decided to to go on a cruse and though after the cruse we can do IVF, anyway we didnt need the IVF after the cruse, the weather was badand we were bored lol. Anyway im saying this not to say that Clomid is usless because i know of many friends that it has helped alot, but just telling you to go with you gut instinct. Also i sugest you buy the Ovulation P tests, You can get about 50 of them on ebay for about $25.00 Australian. Not sure your in oz. but We are now trying for our second child and find that they are helpful and cause they are so cheap i can use one almose every day and work out when i ovulate (even though that is hardsometimes) bt with the clomid you should Deff ovulate :) GOOD LUCK. And remember IT WILL HAPPEN, i sat were you sit not and it may not look like it from your side but we tried for 5-6 years all up and we have a GEORGOUS little girl :) "

" Good luck to you!!! I started clomid after having a metroformin regimen (sp?) and got pregnant on my first round! I'm now the mother of a happy 3 month old little girl.

You'll get some people who love clomid (like me) and some who don't, but each women's body is different so let your own experiences dictate your thoughts/beliefs about it. Main advice is to try to stay as emotional healthy as possible (which can be SO hard when TTC), and don't trust everything you read on the blogs. For most questions your doctor will always be the best source for info.

Lots of luck! Keep us posted. "
