Answer: you can take it starting day 2 or day 5 of your cycle and you take it for 5 days like day 2-6, 3-7, 4-8 or most common 5-9 do not take it any later cause it won't work and may cause you to get an ovarian cyst =

Answer: will you be monitored in any way? because i'm assuming you'll up the dosage if you don't get pregnant and if you do that but you're ovulating and don't know it (clomid messes with ovulation tests, temping, cervical fluid monitoring) and you keep upping your dosage, you'll ruin your ovaries. =

Answer: 25mg is not much at all! I thought the starting dose was 50mg a day for 5 days starting cd2, 3, 4 or 5 at the latest. The earlier you start i.e day 2 the better chance of more follicles developing and being able to ovulate more then one egg possibly to increase your chances. Also make sure your using opk's urine predictor tests for ovulation but you have to wait at least 5 days after finsihing your course to get an accurate result. good luck but I doubt 25mg will do much? =

Answer: actually, the earlier you start the clomid, the higher chance you have of underdeveloped follicles so a higher chance of miscarriage. if you start on day 5, you have a higher chance of reliable eggs. and there are a lot of women who start on 25mg. at least she's not starting at a stupidly high dose considering she's self medicated. =
