Has any one had a success using famara vs clomid?

Question

my husband and I tried to conceive for over three years before we had our daughter (now 5 as of last week). I have a pituitary tumor which is controlled by medication. I am now 38 and still see my fertility doctor and said something new has come out since the last time we went down this path. I have been taking Famarra for 3 cycles now along with doing BBT. no luck as of yet. I go back tomorrow to start another cycle. Clomid did not work for us the first time. Famarra is suppose to be in the same catagory. Anyone ever try it and did it work? I don't think I can emotionaly go through the injections again.

Thanks for your input..

Answer 1

I've used clomid many times over the past 4 years with very poor results, only ovulated about 1 in 5 cycles. Then last month I moved on to Femara, and I actually ovulated, a good strong ovulation with a nice normal 14 day luteal phase. I didn't get pregnant but at least it made me ovulate normally, which is more than the clomid ever did. I take 3 tablets per day, days 3-7, for a total of 7.5mgs per day. I really like Femara, the side effects are much more manageable than with the Clomid.  Good luck and baby dust!!
