Variable: Clomid (clomiphene) is an anti-estrogen & works sort of like faking your brain into thinking your ovaries are failing. Fsh levels rise to increase production of Estradiol from the ovary.

Question 7

Yes: Clomid (clomiphene) is also indicated for short term use in women who fit the criteria of unexplained infertility.

Of course, the clinical exam and history should also confirm 12 months of trying without success and a normal physician exam.

No one best day: Several studies going back to the 1980s demonstrated that pregnacy rates were the same whether cc was started on cycle day 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. Most rei and fertility specialists have preferences for some days over others; it's sometimes a theoretical concern (i prefer cd3) and sometimes a practical matter.

Question 9

However, you should be evaluated by a doctor before trying to conceive again to make certain that you are doing everything you can to lower your risks for miscarriage next time.
