Hi atomic and everyone else,
I thought I had read some time ago that it is not recommended to take clomid/femara only for swaying. But during the last weeks I read several times that we should try to get it regardless. What would you advise in my situation?
DH and me will be 36 when ttc, no bigger health issues, conceived DS1 and 2 within 4 month resp. first month ttc. I will do the diet, one attempt, not sure yet about excercising, coffee, fibre, some alcohol.
If I tell my doctor we've been trying for several months now and ask him directly, he might give it to me.
I read that in our age femara would be first choice, is that correct? Is it really 100% proven that it is save for baby and mother to take it?
TIA for answering :-)

Dear SoFullofHope,
thank you for your answer! I also read about the malformations. But I thought maybe atomic has more recent information on this and perhaps those studies have been proven wrong in the mean time. The numbers I read weren't that clearly showing that the risk for malformations is increased.
If I was in your place, I would have taken it as well. If I remember correctly, your situation is also a bit complicated so that you might not be able to get as many attempts as you would like? I'd also do everything then to increase odds of conception. Will you know soon if your cycle was successful?
I wish you all the best! :-)

I would get it regardless. At the start of the site, Clomid swaying pink was basically my personal pet theory (thus I'd not suggest anyone taking it without need) but now it's gone on for so long and gotten such great results for us and with very few risks and side effects that I am completely sold on it and now recommend it for anyone who can get it from a doctor.
Both Clomid and Femara are extremely safe when taken as directed (not during pregnancy). It is very simple - just take a pregnancy test the day you're due to start the medication even if you are 110% sure you are not pregnant. You can be pregnant even with a totally normal period.
Femara is great for moms over 35 BUT at 36 you can still safely take Clomid.!!! Questions??Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Both Clomid and Femara are extremely safe drugs. Femara when taken for FERTILITY and not during pregnancy is safe, and if anything may even be safer than Clomid. The risk comes from taking these medications DURING pregnancy and this is very easily avoided by taking a pregnancy test the day you are due to start the medication.

They have been proven wrong. And what is more than that, the exact groups of women who are the most likely to need fertility medicine, are also more likely to suffer miscarriages and have babies with health issues to begin with - age, obesity/diabetes, PCOS, anorexics.
These medications have been around for decades. Millions of babies have been conceived on them. Women who were conceived on them are now on this site having babies themselves! If they were causing birth defects we would know it by now.!!! Questions??Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Thank you so much atomic for answering. Wow, that is a clear statement. Fortunately I still have some time before our first attempt in January to think this over as I would have to do it secretly without DH knowing. He would never approve, diet and stuff are already too much manipulation for him, but taking medication would be a whole new dimension...
Do you know if Femara or Clomid has a stronger influence on the sex ratio according to literature? What is your personal experience on this site? Which one would you try to get if you were in my place?
Thanks again for sharing all your knowledge!!
