Got Clomid

Doctor gave me a month supply........25 mg a day....Wants blood test in a month....What can I expect?

A quote from Swale after tell him my story:

"I do think a course of pCT is appropriate in cases such as yours. It is certainly worth a try. The important thing is to use appropriate (meaning: modest) doses."

I think 25mg is a modest dose........

Any thoughts guys?
To quote Swale, "even 25mg per day is a whalloping dose". And he also said you must taper off it, but I can't find the post where he says exactly how to do that. It might have been on another forum.

Hopefully i can hear from swale in this post.........
 
I would just drop to 12.5 mgs for a week, depending on how long you are taking 25 mgs. With a long half life of about 5 days, I wonder why SWALE recommends tapering this med at all.
 
We produce more estrogens at night, but both meds have a 5 day half-life, so it really does not matter.

Yes, you must taper.
 
my forehead is getting really oily noticed it this morning (i've been taking clomid for four days now).......is that from the clomid?

I think so. I'm that way too.

ANTB.......are you tapering off at all

I don't see my doc untill the end of the month. I'll ask when I see him.
I'm starting to feel alot better, but I'm concerned with my dose of Arimidex.
I'm going to ask that my does be lowered to .25mg so that I could possibly avoid going too low on E-2. Everyone's different so we'll see.

Are you feeling any better?

ANTB: well hopefully everything will work out for you.......I think the clomid may have been enough.........As swale says "Even 25mg of clomid is enough to get the HPTA moving........"

As for me.....I guess i'm feeling a bit better.....i've only been taking it for 5 days at 25mg......i'm expecting my second child so my mind has been all over the place........

7 days into the clomid at 25mg and not feeling any different..........

Is it too soon?


Probably, Ive been on it for about two weeks and its a rollercoaster, but overall there is a slight improvement. Anyways, for some reason the PM system doesnt work as I recieve your PM but it wont send. Do you have an email or something like that?

150mg the first week, 100mg the second, and then 50mg for a while after that. Im on the 14th day right now. When I say "improvement" I mean I felt awful, but now slightly less awful. This probably has to do with T and LH being 0, but Im doing it to restart my HPTA. Whats your email?
