Hi Hearthope, I'm so sorry for the loss of your twins. May God give you the strength to get through the very hard times. I hope that the clomid works for you on your first go and that you will be blessed with a baby/babies in the new year. I understand why you would not want the doc to know about taking the pills, I too think the same.

Julix, Hello and welcome. Is this your first time taking clomid? The reason I ask is, if it is, then have you considered taking a lower dose to begin with just to see how your body would react to it? You didn' t mention that you had taken it before, but if your body is already ovulating, then maybe taking 100mg on the first go maybe be too much.
From the reasearch I've done, I did read somewhere that the mg amount also has a baring on over stimulation, not just the length of time you take it. You may find that you only need a little more stimulation to get the two eggies. Wearing an OV watch should help to determine O time, but just beware that I also read somewhere that taking Clomid can effect the LH surge that is needed to detect OV. I also wish that you are blessed as soon as possible with a double bundle.

I am in my late 30's and have looked into taking Fertomid 25mg for quite a while. I already have children but 1 or 2 more to complete my family. This will be cycle 34 for me, so I'm starting to get impatient with the "waiting for something to happen" thing. Hubby is very old fashioned and because of male pride will not go and get his sperm tested. His view is that if we can't get pregnant naturally, then he won't be pursuing it any further. I've also been tracking my ovulation and it doesn't look like I'm ovulating each month. This is why I'm starting u/p Fertomid 25mg within the next few days. Still haven't decided which day to start yet.
I also have some health issues that make this process even harder for me as well as my age. I'm on CD 3 today (tues) and am thinking that tomoro might be a good day to start. I got my Ovulation predictor strips today in the post, and I'm all set to start. Babydust to all and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that we are all blessed!!! Anyone got any suggestions?
