how well does clomid work if you have pcos and how long will it take how will you know if your pregant?

Answer 1

I know several people with PCOS who have tried clomid. For some of them, it worked right away, but for some it didn't work at all, so you just never know.

It will still take about 2 weeks for you to know if you are pregnant, and the regular home pregnancy test should get it if your doctor doesn't have an appointment for blood work. (I think if you get blood work done, you can find out a few days sooner if you are pregnant)

Good luck! :)

Answer 2

In February, the New England Journal of Medicine published a study that compared the effects of metformin alone, clomid alone, and metformin plus clomid in women with PCOS getting pregnant and giving birth. The metformin group had about a 7% chance at getting pregnant, the clomid group had about a 21% chance at getting pregnant, and the metformin plus clomid group had about a 28% chance of getting pregnant. Clomid, if you have anovulatory cycles, basically brings your chances of getting pregnant up to about the same chances as someone with a normal menstrual cycle getting pregnant in any given month. Usually clomid isn't given for more than six months-after six months, if you're taking clomid for six months and not pregnant, it may be time to consider other treatments for fertility issues. If you haven't been screened for insulin resistance, with PCOS, you should be-treating the insulin resistance can improve your chances at pregnancy and improve the chances of a healthy pregnancy as well.

You'll still have to wait the same ten days to two weeks that everyone else does to find out if you're pregnant though.

Answer 3

I tried Clomid for 6 months and to no avail. We are starting Folistem treatments now. Good luck and make sure you dont have any tumors in your uterus also they are good on hiding!!
