My OBGYN had me on clomid, but I didn't get any follow up treatment....they didn't look at my follies or anything. I only know it didn't work as each month I had to take provera to get a period. She then referred me to a specialist who put me on Fermara. It's not really used for infertility, it's actually a post breast cancer drug, but it's supposed to do a similar thing to clomid, but w/o the side effects. Two rounds of that haven't worked, and I feel a little weird about taking it anyway, considering it's not really a fertility drug. I'm thinking about getting a second opinion from another doctor, or maybe seeing if I should try a higher dose of clomid. I heard that if you don't respond at a low dose, increasing the dose doesn't help much. Is that true?
