The Dr said to take Clomid days 5-9 but I am wondering when other people took it and what they got.... I do not want twins.
How long is your CYCLE
DAYS it was taken (D3-?, D5-?, D7-?)
CONCEIVED (DS, DD, or twins)

I will be taking it days 3-7 (not starting until august as just started diet) I dont think it will make a difference
I have taken Clomid for ovulation induction with all four of my pregnancies. I have three girls and miscarried a girl also. I took it CD5-9 for two pregnancies, and CD4-8 for the other two.
5-9 gives you the lowest chances of twins - taking it earlier increases the chance of multiples.
I'm not convinced this works because I've seen plenty o singles on 3-7 range and some twins on 5-9. Take as per dr. suggests because the lenght of your natural cycle comes into it too. A person who regularly ovulates on CD 10 may need to start it sooner for best results, if that makes sense
Last time I swayed I noticed I O on cd13-15. My cycles are 28 days. My ovacue says O on cd13 but I normal O a few days after the predicted date so maybe 15 or 16. I did start clomid late on accident.
When you take it has no bearing on if you have twins. It's how you respond to it.
:agree: I think this has revealed itself to be one of those misinformations that doctors are reporting as fact when really it isn't true.Quote:
