This cycle, I was on 100mg. I've seen quite a few on here with that dosage and some with 50mg, but is there a higher dosage? I only had one mature follicle and am wondering if my RE might increase the dosage..
Usually 150mg is the highest dose, but I have seen someone take 200mg.

Yep, there is definitely higher dosages. I didn't even O until 150. We went up to 200mg (which I don't think is very common) and I think I remember someone going up to 250, but my RE said 200mg was as high as he would go.

I did two rounds at 200 (or maybe 150, then 200? I forget). It didnt' really improve my response - still got only one follicle. It did make my lining worse though. That's the problem with clomid - increasing to get better/more follies can also mean less/worse CM and lining.
Not all people have that problem, but if you do go up be sure your doc watches you closely.

I believe mine would go higher, but I had bad s/e so I'm switching drugs. Good luck!
I did 200 and 250. 250 is really high and I had some vision disturbances from it.
