TTC, What happened for you after Clomid . . .?

Well. I think I am in the minority. After ttc for two years my husband I sought a RE. He was perfectly healthy. I had Endo and Mild ovulatory dysfunction. After my lap, we tried Clomid 50mg from days 3-7. I started my period 2 1/2 weeks later. I went in for an ultrasound and I had developed 8 very large cysts on both of my ovaries. It had made the follicles grow but I still did not ovulate. At that point we decided to do IVF because with IUI we could not be sure that I would ovulate. It was very uncomfortable and that is one of the possible side effects but it is not a common one. I would have been scared to go up more for the risk of cysts, but that is normal protocol. That is usually what doctors will do. I will listen to your doctor but I agree that upping the dose may be a bad idea in your situation but I am not an expert. Are you seeing a RE or OB-GYN?Good luck
