Question 1

my bloodwork on a day 3 drawl showed i have 16.5 on my chlomid challenge test. what does that mean for me and my dreams of becoming a mom?

Accepted Answer

Depends normal range: You would need to know if 16.5 is in the normal range for that laboratory.  Some labs use 14 as the upper cut off and some use 20 as the cut off for normally functioning ovaries.
In general, the higher the cycle day 3 FSH level, the lower the fertility. 
You need to ask your doctor/nurse what the normal range is for that laboratory to know if you can get pregnant.

Question 2

what are your thought on my wife's ob willing to prescribe 4 total rounds of clomid (50 mg, then 3 cycles with 100 mg) when my wife has no ovulation issues?  no problems have been found through the hsg test, ultrasounds, and day 3 bloodwork testing.

Accepted Answer

Discuss plans: It sounds like you don't agree wih his/her plan.  Its very important for everybody's sake that each party agree with the proposed plan. Disagreements can be perceived as lack of commitment and so on.

Question 3

i am 26. i have never had a morning erection, and my genitals look like that of a child. bloodwork shows i have normal t levels. no morning erections despite taking clomid to further increase t. what could be the problem?

Accepted Answer

Erection: If you have never had an erection and your genitals appear like that of a child, you MUST see an Endocrinologist.

Please let me know how things develop!

Question 4

took clomid and dexamethasome which i finished about 3 weeks ago. did bloodwork day 22 which said i ovulated. starting day 22 for 8 days i spotted which i know is too early for period and my dr agrees. did hpt today, which day 28 was 6 days ago. having lo

Accepted Answer

Quality of ovulation: I believe that the end of the questions says that the home pregnancy test may be low. There are differences in the quality of ovulation. At times when Progesterone levels are low even though it indicates ovulation the quality of the ovulation may not be optimal. Spotting after the mid luteal phase indicates that the Progesterone levels may not be high enough to support the endometrial lining. Please follow up with your home pregnancy tests by obtaining an office beta hcg.

Question 5

routine bloodwork shows absolute eosinophils at 4l. all else is normal.  healthy 34 year old mom of 5 with enviro allergies. need to worry or do more?

Accepted Answer

It's  normal: The eosinophil is a  cell in our bodies that help us fight parasite infections and also go up when we have allergies. A one time  level of  4(L) is not a sign of illness  There are many people that go throughout life without any eosinophils. If you have taken steroid injections orPrednisone, this will also push them out of your blood and the test will also show a low level.

Question 6

my wife is on clomid (clomiphene) and day 18 of her cycle and hasn't had a positive opk test yet?   does this mean she won't ovulate this month?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Women taking Clomid (clomiphene) usually ovulate a few days after midcycle.  But being on day number 18 you should have seen a positive test by now.

Question 7

i am taking clomid, (clomiphene) i am 7 days late and my pregnancy test was ngative. i always had a positive ovulation test , it was day 14. what could this mean?

Accepted Answer

Clomid (clomiphene) / late period: When women take clomid, (clomiphene) sometimes their ovary makes extra PROGESTERONE AND ITS TAKES LONGER FOR THE PROGESTERONE LEVELS TO DECLINE WHICH CAUSES A LATE ONSET OF A MENSTRUAL FLOW. IT IS COMMON.

Question 8

could i still get pregnant if 21 day blood test shows .3 progesterone levels? have had 2 rounds of clomid (clomiphene) 50mg, over a year of trying.

Accepted Answer

Next step: See a fertility specialist. If you are not ovulating on Clomid (clomiphene) 50 mg then your dose needs to be increased. If you are not ovulating after a few rounds of Clomid (clomiphene) then more aggressive treatment protocols are needed.

Question 9

1 year trying to conceive, 6 months ago i had a miscarriage. had 2 rounds of clomid, (clomiphene) 21st day test results show not ovul. should i see specialist? 28yr.

Accepted Answer

Ovulation: After a miscarriage  on Clomid (clomiphene) no ovulation ? I think you are quite anxious. Relax. See a specialist.

Question 10

can ovacare,clomid,hormorin and folic acid be taken together to help with unknown cause of infertility because all test show everything is okay?

Accepted Answer

: It is in your best interest to discuss this with the doctor treating you for infertility. Without knowing your medical history, or the results of the tests that you had done, it is not possible to give you a personalized medical recommendation.
