Hi, ladies. Well I finally convinced my husband to get checked and he has a low sperm count. Everything else came back fine. Does anyone else have this situation? He will see the urologist on the 26th. I am going to stay on clomid to improve our chances. I don't know what his exact count is, but I have already put him on vitamins. Thanks for any imput.

Hi Amanda, My DH has a very low sperm count and morph and we still managed to conceive 2 babies (one natural & one clomid) on our own. So it's not the end of the world, but we were told that it would take us longer than most others. I hope that things work out well for you. Jaime

I have herd if take clomid for 3-5 days. you will have chance of multiples. Or is 2-6 days chance of twins/ multiples depends on the dose?

From what I understand, the earlier you take Clomid in your cycle...the more likely you are to have multiples. The average days are 3-7 and 5-9. But if taken on days 2-6, it's supposed to increase the number of follicles that are produced. Good luck!

Hello all! I was wondering if someone could answer a question for me. For the ladies who are taking 100mg. of clomid, how do take it? Two pills at once, or two pills at two different times a day? This is my first time to take 100 mg. The fifty my doc prescribed didn't work the first time. Any advice.?
Thanks so much ladies.
Kelsey

Jaime & Sonya: Congratulations!! I'm thrilled for you both and hope you keep us updated on your progress!
Lauren: I am so sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts are with you and I hope you receive all that you want in the coming month.
Kelsey: Take both the pills at once. I take them before bed time so I sleep through most of the side effects....Good Luck!!

Hi Brenda,
Yes, You count the days of your period. ie. Day one in the first day of normal menstrual flow and day two is the second and so on...
I began clomid on the second day of my period and took 2 pills (100mg) everyday for five days. I am now on day 10. When were you thinking of starting. Good Luck!...Zoe.
