Clomid Use and Abuse

Clomid Use and Abuse
Clomiphene Citrate (Clomid, Serophene)
Some women can't get pregnant because they don't secrete enough LH and FSH at the right time during the cycle and, as a result, they don't ovulate. For these women, the first drug doctors often prescribe is clomiphene citrate (Clomid, Serophene). This synthetic drug stimulates the hypothalamus to release more GnRH, which then prompts the pituitary to release more LH and FSH, and thus increases the stimulation of the ovary to begin to produce a mature egg.

You're very welcome!

I was on Clomid for a little while, if you have any questions, I'd be happy to try to answer them for you.
