Your doctor determines the best Clomid dosage and schedule based on your individual needs and response. Common starting doses range from 50mg to 100mg daily for 5 days, typically starting on cycle day 3, 5, or 7.
Let’s explore administration specifics:
- Timing: Take the medication at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels. Method: Swallow the tablets whole with water. Avoid crushing or chewing. Duration: The 5-day course is standard; however, your doctor might adjust the dosage or duration based on your response.
Dosage adjustments are common. Here’s what you should know:
Increased Dosage: If ovulation doesn’t occur at the initial dose, your doctor may increase it to 150mg daily for 5 days in the next cycle. Higher Dosages: Dosages exceeding 150mg daily are less common and carry a higher risk of side effects. Your doctor carefully weighs the benefits and risks. Monitoring: Your doctor monitors your response through ultrasound scans and blood tests to track follicle development and ovulation.
Remember, this information serves as a guide. Always consult your physician for personalized advice and to discuss any concerns about Clomid use.
