Clomid and increased chance of multiples
Hey, I haven't researched this yet... and I will, just thought I would post here to see if anyone had any info or thoughts.
I am on Clomid trying to get pregnant. My last dose of 50mg did not make me ovulate... shown in blood results. So my doc increased my dose this month to 100mg. **This is my fertile week so keep your fingers crossed for me :D Anyway... I know there is a chance of multiples while on Clomid, 1/10 for twins etc. I was wondering do those chances increase as you move to higher doses of Clomid?:confused: |

Here is what I found from my research. I am also on Clomid (50 mg) and have started to ovulate now. yippeee!!! Its a tough road isn't it Mack?
In clinical studies, about 30 percent of women taking Clomid became pregnant. Of these pregnancies, 7.98 percent were multiple births, including: Twins -- 6.9 percent Triplets -- 0.5 percent Quadruplets -- 0.3 percent Quintuplets -- 0.1 percent. Of the twins, there were five times as many fraternal twins as identical twins. So I would say it does not change much... |

Thanks ladies for your quick responses :)
I was just wondering because my mom's friend was on Clomid and they increased her dosage twice and she got pregnant with triplets!! Yeah Tuscany... it's rough! Not only do I take Clomid (just finished 100mg dose this month) but I don't have periods. So I also take Prometrium to push a cycle, because without it I don't have one. So the crappy thing is I never know if I am missing a period because I'm pregnant, or just because I haven't started back on the Prometrium. So it's a vicious cycle... Take Prometrium 10 days Wait for period to start Start Clomid Wait for fertile phase Get bloodwork to see if Clomid worked Wait to find out if it worked Get pregnancy test because I won't have a period but they can't start my next round of Prometrium until they are sure I'm not pregnant Then repeat Ugh... |

Well good luck :D If it doesn't work this round, your doc will probably do what mine did and just increase your dose to 100mg. I didn't even have to go in haha we talked over the phone and she called everything in and sent the lab orders to my home lol.
Yeah... I always tell my husband "It's your lucky week!" LOL |
