Hi, Welcome! Please introduce yourself in the Newbie thread, and join into the dailies. If you have been diagnosed with Infertility, we have a great and knowledgeable group of ladies who would love for you to join them. We try not to start our own discussions here.
As for Clomid, this should only be used through very specific care through your Reproductive Endocrinologist, who will do a bunch of tests and observe you throughout its use. It is definitely not a drug to be taken lightly or without the express care of an RE.

October 2015 - 1st MC. 7-8 weeks along. Suspected molar PG, but luckily just a MMC.
June 2016 - 2nd MC: 4-5 weeks CP
September 2016 - 3rd MC: 4-5 weeks CP
RE 1: ALL the testing - 'unexplained' "Yinz can do IVF or try on your own"
Feb 2017 - 4th MC: 6 weeks
RE 2: More tests. Still 'unexplained.' Called fat for an entire hour-long appointment, cried a lot
It’s also important to know there is a lifetime limit on clomid. So you will want to make sure a RE has looked everything over, and you are in the best possible position to be successful with it. We found out my tubes were blocked when we consulted a RE. If I had taken it before they were able to reopen one, I would have best case “wasted” one or worst case had a tubal pregnancy.
But yes- the IF chat is wonderful here! Introduce yourself (and change your username) we’re looking forward to getting to know you.
