clomid

  • Miscarriage or Twins?

    QUESTION

    Hi,
    According to my last menses I am supposed to be 6 weeks but when I went see my doctor the scan didn't show a heartbeat. All we saw was a large cyst and two dots.

    My doctor said that the dates could be wrong as I was on clomid and it could have delayed ovulation. I might be only 4 weeks pregnant but he couldnt confirm anything because he said the dots were too small.

  • Questions About Clomid and Progesterone

    QUESTION

    Dear Midwife,
    I was recently put on Clomid by one of my doctors because my progesterone levels were "not so good".

    My first question is if my LMP date was wrong (I did not keep a close track) could my progesterone test levels be affected by this and should I ask for a blood pregnancy test before I take the first pill in five days?

  • Missed Clomid Pill

    QUESTION

    Dear Midwife,
    I normally ovulate by myself regularly but started taking clomid pills for the first time last month to boost my chances. I was told to take it on Day 2 to Day 6 of my period.

    Unfortunately, I forgot to take it on Day 4. However, I continued taking the rest of the pills. So instead of the last pill being on Day 6, my last pill was on Day 7.

    I would like to know if this will affect my chances of conception?

    Thank you.

    Dear Midwife,
    I am to my breaking point, so I thought I'd write you.

  • Ectopic and Infertility

    Two weeks after our long-awaited positive, we found it was an ectopic pregnancy. We were devastated. Now I want answers to why. Can I still get pregnant without treatment? Will it turn out to be normal? I feel hopeless and all alone. My family is more tuned in to my sister being pregnant and forgetting about my loss. I hope you can help! Read Debbie and Mara's reply.

  • Amanda's Journey Final entry -- week 33

    So here I sit. Months have gone by and I have not written. After writing my entry on my due date I just lost all goals for writing. There were just too many thoughts and happenings. Too many to put into words. It sounds like an excuse and it probably is. I guess I was just overwhelmed with it all.
