I started my period on 28th Feb and started bleeding heavy on 3rd March... Would it be ok to start Clomid today on 8th March? Or is it too late?

When used for ovulation induction, Clomid is taken orally for approximately five days early in the menstrual cycle. Depending upon your clinic protocol this may start as early as day 3 or as late as day 5. It is important to remember that the first day of the menstrual cycle is the first day of normal bleeding, not spotting. Most women begin with an initial dose of one tablet (50 mg.) per day. This dose may be increased by your physician in subsequent cycles if pregnancy does not occur. Once ovulating, most pregnancies occur in the first 6 cycles of treatment. Clomid is said to be able to induce ovulation in as much as 85% of the women who use it, though only half of those will actually become pregnant. Most authorities agree that continuing for more than 6 ovulatory cycles in not likely to increase the chances of success.
found this for you i hope it helps you to find out if your ok to take it or you need to wait till your next period. ive been on clomid and it worked for me hope its works as quickyl for you good luck.

If you weren't having red blood just spotting on Feb 28th then don't count that as cycle day 1. Since you say you started bleeding heavily on March 3 then count that as the first day of your period. You are supposed to take clomid either days 3-7 or days 5-9. However I had to take my last clomid cycle days 7-11 due to having an HSG done and I still got pregnant so I don't think it matters so much when you take it as long as you don't ovulate naturally before you finish the clomid. If you do ovulate on your own and should ovulate soon (I used clomid to make me ovulate) I wouldn't suggest taking the clomid this cycle. However if you do not ovulate on your own and are taking the clomid for this purpose I say it wouldn't hurt for you to go ahead and take it since you would only be on cycle day 6. Good luck!
