have tried clomid....and it didnt work have you tried provera??? did that work??????


oh crap...i did it again... I ment Femera... I ALWAYS get them mixed up!!!!!!

[Coley]

I haven't... but Clomid and Provera do completely opposite things.

Clomid brings on Ovulation and Provera brings on AF...

[DeepSouthMommy]

Yep, what she said. Are you about to start Clomid?

[denalibear]

I tried Clomid for 2 cycles and then my doctor let me try Femara. I didnt really care for either Rx.

Don't know much about Provera, but my MIL took it, and 4 months later had baby #1, three years later took it again and had baby #2, and then three years after that took it again and had twins (my DH is a twin). I doubt she kept taking it between children, but I could be wrong.

Provera works to bring on your period when you are having long cycles. So you take the Provera in order to O more often than you would if you just waited for AF to show up naturally. For instance, I had a 90 plus day cycle recently. If I'd taken Provera to bring on AF at the end of each month, I'd have had THREE chances to get pregnant. But because I wasn't taking Provera, I only had one since you only O once per cycle. Provera simply mimics the hormones that your body should naturally produce in order to build up your lining and bring on AF.

Can't believe I messed them up again.. darn femera and provera

If this cycle doesn't work, then we will do another Clomid + IUI cycle. If that doesn't work then we are moving on to injectibles and IVF.
