1st cycle of clomid fail:( When to start again?

t-lou rosales · May 2010

So I had my first cycle of clomid (100mg) CD 2-6. I started last last mon. Went back the following Mon for u/s and Dr said he thinks he sees an egg forming and I should come back Thurs. So last Thurs...he said no egg But I should come back Tues. So the nurse said that I will have to go onto my 2nd cycle on 150mg. I guess I just assumed that I need to wait for my period. But the nurse said that the Dr sometimes doesn't wait for it, and that he will determin that on Tues. I don't get it? How is that possible?

Sorry if my question doesn't make sense I'm new to all this...and totally confused and frustrated and irritated lol maybe I'm just tired.

Usually you wait for your period before starting a new Clomid cycle, but I have heard of people taking it again without a period. Not sure I understand the reasoning but it's not unheard of.

Yes, you can start medicating again without a period depending on how your lining looks. If it's thin enough you can just move forward, if it's too thick then you need to have a period first. I have no idea what the lining numbers are, but your RE can explain.

Good luck.

I'm curious as to why you did cd 2-6? i have NEVER heard of those days...it's usually 3-7 or 5-9. Maybe ask your doc to delay your clomid for either of those options and jump to 150mg?

I think that if you didn't ovulate, they can start you back on Clomid again for another try at it. If you had ovulated, they would have definitely had you wait for a period before trying again.
