Femara ovulation induction

Common Questions and Answers about Femara ovulation induction

femara

374593 tn?1257879950 If you are not planning to do IVF, then immediate ovulation induction/IUI after surgery is probably better before the endometriosis returns. I think Femara is a great choice for ovulation induction for women with endometriosis. Of course, you should discuss this with your own infertility doctor.
Avatar f tn I think it's because Femara has technically not been approved for ovulation induction. It's only approved by the FDA for cancer treatment. But I agree with you!
Avatar f tn For induction of ovulation, drugs like clomiphene and femara can be used. If these do not help then gonadotropins can be used. Consult an infertility expert for an opinion. The answer is based on information provided. Exact advice is not possible without a proper examination and investigations. You are requested to consult your Doctor. Take care and keep us posted.
Avatar n tn If you were my patient, I would consider ovulation induction once we knew whether or not you have endometriosis. Endometriosis can be worsened(or improved) by hormonal manipulation. I would start with a medication such as Clomid or Femara. Good luck!
Avatar f tn This is only a concern if you take femara WHILE already pregnant. And in ovulation induction you would of course only be using it before ovulation.
Avatar f tn I have been on femara 2.5 mg for ovulation induction. I have PCOS. This is the first month I have been on the femara before that I was on clomid for 6 months with nothing happening at all. I have CD 13 follicle scans. Friday was my CD 13 scan and it showed two follicles one on each ovary. Not sure of sizes. I have been using ovulation test since my scan.

Avatar n tn I took my last Femara pill on October 18. I bought some ovulation predictor tests from the Dollar Tree and took the first on October 20th. I was positive but I wondered if the Femara caused a false positive so I took another the next day and it was negative. I tested today and there was one line but it was so faint I could barely see it. Should I have gone with another brand?
1767573 tn?1313710908 ovulation usually occurs mid cycle if u have natural regular cycles. but if uv been on BC for so long ur body may take a some time to return back to its normal status.
325477 tn?1250551309 Thanks, so its just a stronger form of ovulation induction (like clomid or femara). My RE mentioned that if we didnt' get a BFP within two cycles of our plan, then we would move onto stronger ovulation inductors that would most likely release more than one or two eggs (he didn't want to start there due to my age and risk of multiples - i'm 27 so I guess thats a higher risk for multiples). so we'll see! Good luck with everything!!
366262 tn?1360031596 After months of failed attempts trying the old fashioned way, and clomid, we finally got our BFP with the second cycle of femara. By the way the side effects of femara are way more tolerable than the awful side effects I would have on Clomid. Good Luck SSBD to you!
Avatar f tn If your progesterone levels are not within the expected range with Femara, even when ovulation occurs, your doctor may want to supplement you with progesterone after ovulation. Progesterone not only helps with ovulation, but also helps to build the uterine lining. If the lining is too thin, it can cause the egg not to implant in the lining or can lead to early miscarraige. Good Luck!
406631 tn?1201892087 However if your periods are regular even without femara, then your chances of getting pregnant might be improved if intrauterine insemination is added to your treatment. Regarding urine ovulation prediction, if the femara is going to work to get you to ovulate, your ovulation is most likely to happen 7-10 days after your last femara.
Avatar f tn Is is a common thing to ovulate late on Femara? If so, how late is too late to hold out hope for ovulation?
Avatar f tn If your levels are normal, ovulation induction would be the next sensible step. Probably with a mild medication such as Clomid or Femara. It sounds like you are not ovulating regularly, and a medication such as this could help with that. I doubt that you have a tubal blockage, unless you had an infection after your delivery. I'll bet that once you start ovulating you will get results! Good luck!
1580043 tn?1333550441 I just used Femara on the first cycle and got pregnant my first round!Though my RE told me to BD around 4 days before ovulation and on ovulation day. We did about every nught before , during and once after and here I am at 6 weeks!I read somewhere that many women don't know that BD before ovulation increases your chances of getting pregnant also because the sperm can stay inside the woman's body for 4 to 5 days!Good luck and loads of Baby Dust******!
398038 tn?1247857003 ve been charting my temperature too and it went up a little today, but not as much as usual after ovulation. If anyone out there has taken Femara or knows what to expect, I would really appreciate your thought and/or advice. Thank you so much!
Avatar f tn Hi all. This is my second month on Femara. I just found this website today. I took clear blue easy digital ovulation tests. My first month on Femara I didn't get a positive OPK. But I tried again this month. We got a positive OPK on Friday which is really early for me! CD 10 - I usually Ovulate on CD 13 or 14. It is too early for me to do a HPT. I am going to an OB and not an RE yet. Dr. said he would refer us to the RE if this doesn't work. I am very hopeful that this month worked!!
992128 tn?1364371742 I tried it since I had vision problems with clomid. Only side effect I had was breast tenderness. I still didn't ovulate but I did grow follicles - my next treatment cycle, my RE will have me take femara plus injections, then a trigger shot to induce ovulation. I think I'm in the minority when it comes to not ovulating on clomid or femara alone though, because almost everyone else I've heard that took either at least ovulated with it. I hope it works for you!
Avatar f tn I had some medium spotting on 16th so I counted that as Day 1 of period as on a normal month thats what would happen, then started heavy bleeding on day 3 which is when I started the Fertility drug Femara.. Doc said I should of started the drug on the 19th..
Avatar f tn I tested cd 13 and cd 14 it doesn't show ovulation ,do you think I am going to have ovulation ?? I'm very worry ,I stop my bd and waite for ovulation because I want the count of sperm be high ? because always I had a regular cycle and my ovulation was cd 12-13 even when I used clomid for 2 months. is it normal and healthy if my ovulation happen cd 15 or 16 or not??? thanks for supporting me.
405855 tn?1217100767 candie429: Oh!! So Femara is the curprilt...no wonder I have been having these headaches since the last 2 days...yesterday's was intolerable...I applied Balms, seltp but it did not help. So gulped down 2 tabs and feel better today. Thanks for asking Sheri : Even though the baby is not attached, I have heard of some effects of some meds like Asprin, Aleve, ibrufen, etc on ur hormones, blood thinning/clotting, ovulation.
Avatar f tn My Dr put me on Femara for the 3-7 day of AF . Was wondering if anyone has taken this drug and how long did it take to get pregnant?
257175 tn?1204161973 I took femara after trying clomid unsuccessfully. I conceived on my second cycle of femara. I also had to have a trigger shot since I wasn't ovulating on my own (so you may want to look into that). I also had IUI. Good luck to you!
