Hopefully this "super ovulation" will help! Plus it's a pretty cheap drug, so that's good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/starting-clomid-not-sure-about-it#post-2632901 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 12:08:35 +0000 Worrywart 2632901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same situation as @sarac above. I was not ovulating on my own so took 100 mg of clomid for two months to conceive my daughter. Was only monitored with 21 day blood test. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/starting-clomid-not-sure-about-it#post-2632859 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 11:34:49 +0000 sarac 2632859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used clomid on that protocol (no monitoring beyond the 21 day progesterone testing) to conceive my first daughter. I wasn't ovulating, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/starting-clomid-not-sure-about-it#post-2632821 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 10:57:33 +0000 tequiero21 2632821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did three cycles of clomid. Don't think I was monitored. I feel like they did that just as the "next logical step"... not because I needed it because like you, I ovulated fine. We did clomid plus iui but none resulted in a baby.</p> <p>Supposedly, people said it's like super ovulation... not sure what that means lol. I did like that I had two eggs or so by iui time because I was hoping for twins ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/starting-clomid-not-sure-about-it#post-2632810 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 10:49:19 +0000 Banana330 2632810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bibliolove: no personal experience, but a friend was ovulating but used clomid after over a year having trouble to conceive. I think they were monitored too but it helped and they have a 1 year old now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/starting-clomid-not-sure-about-it#post-2632803 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 10:41:42 +0000 Bibliolove 2632803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw my OBGYN after trying for one year+. With the addition of a sperm analysis before starting, she wants me to start Clomid. However, I'm not hopeful because I am ovulating each month like clockwork (OPKs plus temping tells me so), and my CD 3 blood work is normal. I'm going to try Clomid, but I'm not so sure it is going to help if I am ovulating fine? I'm honestly still a little confused about how Clomid would help me, but I need to do more reading I guess. She wants me to try for 3 months with Clomid before I move into RE territory. </p> <p>I'm reading Hellobee, and it seems most ladies are monitored on it? I will get monitored on CD 21 only for progesterone. Hopefully this is OK? I trust my doctor, I just get a bit of a head spin when I am actually in the office and she is talking about all these interventions. :/ </p>
