Can you go to a different doctor or ask your GP??
We really really want people to get clomid from a legit source. If you DO get it from another place please let me know so I can be sure you are not taking it in an unsafe way, but I strongly urge that everyone go through their doctor because it is a prescription medication.
Can you tell me exactly what I should say? I'm worried that my GP will ask why I didn't go to my OB.

I would be honest with your GP and say that you don't want your OB to know. You work closely with her/him and you want to keep your relationship professional. Any doctor can respect that, if not, get a different doctor [emoji6]!

If anyone checks back on here I'd be interested to know, if you had a scan whilst taking clomid, how many mature follicles you had?
I'm just curious of what to expect, whether its normal to have 2-3 follicles or not.
Clomid dosage:
Days taken (3-7 etc):
Mature follicles:
Outcome:
Thanks so much for any help if anyone does come back and look!
I used clomid for swaying purposes only, 50mg CD3-7, no side effects, conceived on 2nd cycle with DS3 :happy:
I can't, because every doctor seems to react a little bit differently. I agree with XX tho, I'd mention that you work for the OB and it's just something you don't want to deal with. :)Quote:

I did think about just taking 25, but think I will go for 50 on days 5-9 and be scanned on cd12.
:agree: and many doctors will tell a couple to TTC anyway. It's harder than you think to fall pg especially with low sperm count.
I prefer 50. I know that 25 has worked for people, but I just feel like if you're going to take it, take enough so it actually works for you!
FXFXFX - and I'd ask if htey want you to come in later than CD 12 - I'm not sure stopping Clomid on CD 9 will end up with you ovulating only 3 days later as a general rule - all depends on how much you need to pay.
Me again ladies,
1) I called my friend who is a PA at an RE and told her I wanted clomid for a short LP and swaying for a girl..she said I could do a "clomid package" at their office but thinks I should go to my OB
2) called my family doctor for an appt. the girl scheduling thought I was crazy calling there for an appt but reluctantly scheduled me for tomorrow..
Wish me luck!
