I'm on Metformin right now. My doctor wants to see me in two months to check and see if I've ovulated. He wants to give the Metformin time and see if I can get pregnant by using it only (I have PCOS)
He did say there was a risk of multiple births when taking Clomid. He said there were more cases of twins than he could count but in his 23 years he had two patients on Clomid that had triplets!

My husband and I want a baby, but I'm not so sure we want 3 at one time! Two might be okay...but even still, I'd like to have one.

I want to hear from other women who have been on Clomid and find out if you conceived 1, 2 or 3 children.

Please, if you haven't been on Clomid or know someone very close to you that has, don't bother answering. All I want to know is how common twins and triples are when using Clomid.

Thanks.

after a month on Clomid, my sister-in-law conceived triplets, and right after they were born, she became pregnant with another, so that made 4 kids under 2 years old. i would check into the incidence of autism in children with mothers who have taken fertility pills -- seems to me that many of the people I know who have used fertility meds have at least one child with autism. Some have more than one. This could be sheer coincidence - but it's just something that struck me as curious.

the way Clomid grew to become into defined to me (and that i took it for some twelve months and a a million/2 altogether) is this- in a classic cycle with out Clomid, one ovary takes over, produces a great egg, and the 2d ovary backs off while it realizes the 1st ovary is dealing with the interest. Clomid, in spite of the shown fact that, talks to the two ovaries by way of the cycle, they the two attempt to offer the triumphing egg and frequently you will get an egg on the two aspects. the possibilities for twins is approximately 6-10% (you're able to desire to bear in concepts that each and each wholesome egg has some 20 to twenty-5% danger of conceiving and producing a touch one) and triplets or greater is below a million%. in case you rather want yet another infant, and twins would not be the tip of the worldwide, I say decide for it- those are fairly small odds and surely rather surely worth the prospect.

I have taken Clomid
but only for 5 days I will not be taken anymore
I was on it because I have 3 months of Lupron the cause my periods to stop when I my finally come back I was given Clomid
to help me ovulate
now it has been 11 days since I last took Clomids
I am hoping that I will be preg
the thing is the chance of you having twin or triples is about 2% to 15%
so don't let that scare you to try
and note that the other side effect are bad
I was a bich I lost my temper my husband have surgery and I was horrid to him, (he was impossible but I was not supportive )
girl worried more about these other side effects then the chances of you have mutiples
Goodluck

hi there! I know a lot about clomid. If you have any more questions about anything about it feel free to email me. It doesn't increase your chances by a significant amount. My doc said only 5%-10% more chance of having multiples. I am pretty sure that includes all multiples. But you chances of triplets or more are far less. I took clomid with my daughter and only conceived her. I am currently ttc#2 and I took clomid this month. I am smack in mid cycle so I don't have any stats as of yet.

I don't believe in infertility drugs. If it's not meant to be, then it's not meant to be. People should stop playing God, in my opinion.
