Clomid: days 3-7 or 5-9? AND Progesterone interpretationFrom: Carrie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 2 Apr 1998 15:46:00 -0600 (CST)
I am in the process of changing doctors, and I have a couple of questions: 1. I read on this obgyn forum site that starting Clomid anywhere between cycle day 2 to 5 depends on the length of your menstrual cycles beforehand and that ovulation occurs 5 to 7 days after the last tablet. I'm in the cycle day 5-9 situation and pre-meds my cycles were 6-8 weeks long. I would like to take the tablets starting cycle day 3 because I want to induce ovulation earlier (my husband will be out of town, so those two days may make a difference). Can you tell me whether this is okay given my unmedicated cycle lengths? Or, even if it makes a difference at all what day I start the Clomid? Background: I am taking 50mg clomiphene citrate, no other meds. This past cycle was my first on Clomid. I ovulated on cycle day 19 (I hope) and my luteal phase went from 10-11 days to 12-13 days. 2. I'm pretty certain I ovulated this month - likely on CD 19. My temperatures spiked and cervical fluid dried up. I did a progesterone blood test 6 or 7 days post-ovulation. The results were 46.9 mol / l. I think this means I ovulated but still low on the progesterone post-ovulation. I'm not sure though. Can anyone help me out with the interpretation? (As I said, I'm in the process of switching doctors.) Cheers, Carrie
