I WAS GIVEN CLOMID FRIST. MY DOCTOR DID A PAP AND PUT ME ON CLOMID. PLEASE
GET THE DYE TEST. THE DOCTOR THAT I HAVE NOW DID THE TEST AND DISCOVERED
THAT THERE IS SCARE TISSUE. CLOMID WILL NOT WORK IF THERE IS TUBAL SCARRING.
THE DOCTOR CAN GIVE YOU A MINOR PROCEDURE TO GET RID OF THE TISSUE AND
THAN THE CLOMID WILL BE EFFECTIVE. PLEASE GET THE TEST DONE CLOMID WILL NOT
WORK. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXCITED ABOUT TAKING CLOMID BUT YOU ARE THROUGH
MONEY AND TIME OUT THE DOOR WITH OUT A DYE TEST. AFTER THE TEST AND YOUR
TUBES LOOK FINE GO A HEAD WITH THE CLOMID. TRUST ME IT HAS BEEN A YEAR SINCE
I WAS PUT ON CLOMID AND NOW I JUST FOUND OUT I HAVE SCARE TISSUE SO I LOST
AN ENTIRE YEAR. BUT NOW I AM ON MY WAY. I WISH YOU LOVE
