Common Questions about Clomiphene Citrate (Clomid)

When is the best time to get pregnant on Clomid?

The best time to try and get pregnant while on Clomid treatment is by having sex on days 14 through 19 of your menstrual cycle, which is when ovulation occurs. You should try to have sex every other day (at least 2-3 times a week) for 7-10 days, starting 5 days after your last clomiphene tablet.

How do I know Clomid is working?

If you get a menstrual period on days 27 through 30 after taking Clomid, it means the medicine is working properly. If you don’t get your period, you should do a pregnancy test. If the pregnancy test is negative, you can continue taking the medicine for another cycle. Note that your provider may call you in to do a pregnancy test in the office before the next treatment cycle, because taking Clomid while pregnant can harm the unborn baby.

Approximately 80% of women who take Clomid ovulate. However, 30-40% of women who take Clomid for 3 cycles become pregnant.

What happens if I don’t get pregnant on Clomid?

If you don’t get pregnant after the first cycle of Clomid, your doctor may prescribe a higher dose. However, if you don’t get pregnant after 3-6 cycles of clomiphene treatment, your provider will discuss other infertility treatments with you.
