A member asked:
I have irregular menses endometrial hyperplasia and pcos have kids already want another which is better clomid (clomiphene) or femara?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Femara (letrozole): Femara seems to be better at ovulation induction than clomid (clomiphene). It has a shorter half life therefore it is not in the body very long. Clomid (clomiphene) has a long half life thus after repeated Clomid (clomiphene) cycles the chance of pregnancy decreases due to the estrogen blockage at the uterus.
