New and need advice

I just want some advice or comforting on infertility. My husband and I have been trying for a year and seem to not be able to conceive. My doctor has put me on clomid for four months. This month is my last month and I really dont want to be disappointed. She has upgraded my medicine from 50mg to 100mg. My question is will this actually work? Or am I just getting my hopes up for nothing? Its hard to deal with this kind of thing. I had a miscarriage about 5 years ago and didnt know why, now I know. I just want to hear from ladies who have had or had not success with the clomid.

Hello and Welcome Brandie!


I'm so sorry to hear of your loss and your issues with TTC.

I chime in with the advice to seek out the opinion of a RE. They're the go-to folks for this.

My first and foremost question is: you're on Clomid, but has your husband had his sperm tested? I've heard of other women who just get put on Clomid with no testing of the partner, and I can tell you from experience that it doesn't matter what they do to you if there's a male factor involved and it's not addressed.

Good luck to you, though! There are a lot of folks on this board with a variety of experiences if you have further questions.
