Thanks Lisa..I have searched the archives but found nothing really helpful. (maybe I'm not looking in the right place) Mostly about other's experiences while on Clomid. I haven't been on any meds other than the Provera ( which is supposed to enduce ovulation ). I assume that it's possible I could eventually become pregnant on my own, by what I have been reading in articles on this site. But, then again..it could be years. I've been told great things about how clomid has helped others, but I'm also told that I should just let nature take its course. I think I can handle the side effects as long as they aren't long term. I know that there are side effects to any drug, I'm more concerned about any effect this will have on my child (if still in my system) and other things like any links to cancer. Anywho. I wish you luck as well. :) At Tue, 16 ct 2001, L. wrote: >
