Hi Ladies... I will be starting a second round of letrozole this month...just looking to hear some positive stories from other women who have take this medication! And just FYI I have pcos which is why I'm taking the letrozole. I figured this would be the best place to post this...Thanks!

Each person is different. I never responded to femara at all. So they switched me to clomid.

I also have PCOS, and completed 3 cycles of letrozole, followed by the HCG trigger shot and timed intercourse. The meds "worked" in the sense that I ovulated, and then got a period since my hubby's little swimmer didn't connect with my eggs. Then, we tried the same meds, but this time followed by an IUI and I'm currently 10 weeks pregnant! Good luck to you!

Thanks for your response...my doctors haven't mentioned IUI yet... since this will be my second cycle on the meds I wonder if they will discuss It...

llc418  (lurking from 2nd tri).  I have pcos. My first pregnancy was twins from my first cycle of letrozole and ovidrel shot, after having not responded to clomid for 3 cycles.  This pregnancy was spontaneous (crazy).  Good Luck to you.

I have PCOS as well. I have a 7 year old daughter that was conceived on my second round of femera/ovidril while taking metformin. I did not ovulate on clomid. I am now pregnant again after my first round of femera/ovidril with metformin. I did get pregnant on my own immediately after going off nc, but had two miscarriages. Hopefully metformin helps with that! Good luck to you. Femera for me has been a wonder drug. Oh, and per my dr recommendation I had been taking pregnitude.
