Hi Sylvia,

Some doctors are too eager to increase the dose of medications, but the wise thing is to wait and see the results. As the result you are waiting for is ovulation, you should wait at least one month to see if the drug works. But in fact, as the relationship between IR and ovulation is multiplex, one should wait even longer to see if a given dose level works.It is absolutely no need to hurry with dose increases or addition of clomid either. For your info

Sam
