Clomid Ladies....Please read.?

Question

I am on my 3rd cycle of clomid (100mg).I have PCOS and have been TTC for 18months. I had a follicle tracking scan today (CD 16) and i have a 20mm follicle and I will most likely ovulate in the next 2 days. I have not yet detected my LH serge...Is this normal...???

They also looked at my lining and said it was perfect...Fingers crossed this is my month...Please Lord!!!

Is there anyone with a clomid success story and how many cycles did it take?

Thanks and babydust to all those TTC.

Answer 1

Yes it's totally normal not to have the LH surge until 12 hours before ovulation. Normally they says 12-36 hours, so maybe you're on the short side of that. Remember tat Clomid can delay ovulation; my RE office says they average the effects of Clomid as 4 days late (4 days on ovulation, and then of course, 4 days on testing!)

Answer 2

Yes that is normal. The LH surge come 12-24 hours before ovulation. I was on clomid 100mg days 5-9 for two cycles and on the 2nd cycle it worked. I actually had two follicles that were ready but only one released.

Good Luck

Answer 3

Just keep testing around 2pm every day it will arrive soon.

Good luck.

Answer 4

I'm wondering why your doctor didn't give you an HcG trigger to induce ovulation. 20mm is mature follicle, you don't wan to wait for it to over-mature.

I did six unsuccessful cycles of Clomid and had do do injectables to get pregnant.
