Dr. Lovely,

I was on Clomid for 4 years to no avail. I tried Perganol for 1 month and got pregnant. I had artificial insemination the whole time.

My question is: Should I worry about being on Clomid for so long? Most of those 4 years I was taking 150 mg toward the end I was able to drop down to 100 mg.

The good news: I got pregnant 8 months after I delivered my first child with no help of medication.

The bad news: I miscarried

The good news: I got pregnant a year later with twins with no medication

The bad news: I lost one of the babies early in the pregnancy

The good news: I had a beautiful big healthy baby girl!
