I agree way too complicated.
All you can do is what you feel comfortable with. I'm just going to warn you that whether laid back or not, prepare for a lecture and also the claim that Clomid doesn't sway pink but doctors simply haven't read the studies about it. Doctors know a ton of stuff about a ton of stuff but they'll deny Clomid sways pink because they ahven't heard about it. They may even see 50-50 conceived on Clomid but do not understand that it's because of PCOS and also the things that people do to boost fertility on Clomid that makes it look even. For the average person, it does sway pink and studies have shown it.

My cousin is on clomid and was for her first ( a girl ) and her ob told her that she had an 80 percent chance that she would have a girl? And she did. She also has pcos. She lost alot of weight before conceiving

Now that OB has the opposite problem and is inventing numbers out of thin air!

I'm not gonna mention anything about taking it to sway.
I'm gonna say I'm gonna take it bc I have a very short LP and see what he says.
I hope he doesn't think I'm crazy.

I'm curious...if I had a bad reaction to Clomid, does that mean I would react badly to Femara too? Or would it theoretically be safe to give Femara a try?

Femara has a lot fewer side effects so worth a try IMO.
My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP
TTC #1
- swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!
Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic
Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

I took Clomid 50 mg for swaying only.
I wasn't monitored wich worried me a bit. Right after Ovulation i felt a lot of cramping for days, like there was a lot going on in there. One week after my O i felt really pregnant and i never had that so early with my other pg's.
I took it from CD 3-7. I conceived the first cycle and it's only 1 baby, so no twins fortunately.
I really hope it's a girl! I'll find out after 5 weeks...

Possibly, but they are different medications so I'd give it a try if your doc is willing. The worst that will happen is that you'll experience hte same issue and have to drop it like you did with the Clomid.
Thank you for chiming in!!

swayed for

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
