Clomid (clomiphene) is an estro receptor.brain needs estrogen surge to release lh.which means ppl on clomid (clomiphene) don't have lh surge?how egg burst out?

Got confused?: You are getting yourself confused. Clomid (clomiphene) is not an 'estro receptor' at all; it is mainly an estrogen receptor antagonist, but it has pro-estrogenic actions in some tissues and anti-estrogenic actions in others. Women on Clomiphene do mostly have an lh surge; not surging means the Clomiphene dose was likely too low.
