I was wondering what was better... to take clomid days 3-7 or 5-9? I have heard from some ladies on here who say that there is more women who have success taking it days 3-7 instead of days 5-9.. My Doc says I can do it whichever days I want and we can adjust it if it doesnt help me to O.

what days do you guys take clomid?

    My RE always has me take it CD3-7. The one cycle I did with an OB before I knew better, he had me take it CD5-9.

    I took it days 3-7.  I think that is standard for my RE.  I have seen ladies say both time frames.

    I am going to take it CD3-7 as I usually O on CD12.  The RE was originally going to have me do 5-9 until I spoke up about my early O date.

    I took it 3-7 and never O'd. Instead I developed cysts all over both ovaries, so make sure they monitor you around your CD 11 or 12. GL!

    My RE says it depends on why someone is on the Clomid.  For me, he said he prefers 5-9.  I think he said if they are trying to get someone to ovulate they go 5-9, if they are working with someone who ovulates on their own he goes 3-7.  Not really sure on his reasoning though.

    TTC since 2010

    lots of IUIs and 1 IVF all BFNs
