Pregnancy Info HOME

I CANNOT believe some of the postings, I am an RN and I have PCOS and am on metformin, My Endocrinologist recommended that I try Clomid if I don't get pregnant in 1 year. He also recommended that I try for multiples b/c I will have to remove my ovaries as soon as I give birth, so I have 1 "shot" for having a family. So I am also excited about the possibility of twins, but I would NEVER take any prescription medicine without medical advise. Clomid is a drug with real side effects and is used to treat women with real problems conceiving, not for women to pick and chose how many babies she wants to have. It makes me sick to think that women that can conceive naturally purchase this drug without a prescription just so they can have twins or triplets. Unless you have an MD after your name, leave the prescribing and diagnosing to your doctors, if not for your own health but for the health of your unborn babies. Multiple births increase a mother's risk for many pre and post pregnancy complications, not to mention uterine rupture and extensive lacerations, but multiple births also increase the chance that your baby will be born prematurely. To all women considering purchasing Clomid illegally, DONT, consult your physician first
