- Re: AF is coming! (ttc ment)

[Guest guest]

I understand exactly what you mean....but I also think that Clomid

can cause stumbling blocks in people who are already ovulating. I

got pregnant on my own last year very easily (by accident!) and as

soon as I took the Clomid, I was not able to conceive on my own

anymore.

It's a tough decision and i'm in the same situation as you. I am

going to go back to the Clomid/IUI if this cycle is not successful

(It's day 16 and I got a positive ovulation test on day 14). The

reason that I'm going back to the Clomid so quickly is that I'll be

37 in 2 weeks and I don't really have the luxury of time (as my

doctor keeps reminding me!)

Good luck, . Going the IUI route with the Clomid is a good

idea because of the cervical mucous problems it causes in so many

people. It's a good next step for you.
