If you had success with Clomid, how many medicated cycles did it take to become pregnant?

I hope it's ok to post here - I looked for board guidelines but did not see any.

Quick intro: TTC 2+ years without treatment. I am supposed to start Clomid (with monitoring) next cycle. HSG, SA, and all bloodwork is normal except slight hypothyroidism (treated w/Synthroid, levels are now normal) and I have been diagnosed with "ovulatory dysfunction NOS". DH and I are looking to make some major life decisions and these decisions would be much easier if we had an idea of our timeline or our likelihood of success (obviously, we know anything is possible and it's impossible to plan, but a more complete idea of our chances would be very helpful). I'm just wondering, for those of you who had success with Clomid, how long it took! Thanks in advance!

    My sister had success with her second cycle. Unfortunately, I didn't have success with Clomid- it thinned my lining, so it wouldn't have ever been effective. But, before I did clomid, I did a similar med with my OB/GYN and was successful on my third cycle (ended in miscarriage). We had unexplained IF. It took another year and a half of IUIs and IVFs to get us our twin boys.

    Hoping for a successful outcome for you.

    I was successful on my 2nd cycle and had ds. For the twins I did 4 more cycles, no luck. Switched to femara and got pg with them on the 2nd cycle.
