A member asked:

After 2 months on clomid, (clomiphene) estradiol 66.19 pg/ml. did clomid (clomiphene) raise my e2 or does the blood test mistake the clomid (clomiphene) metabolites for e2?

My only question: is "when" was the E2 level drawn? whether it is "good" or "bad" depends on specifically what day of your cycle the level was checked: if early in the cycle like CD2-3 it is a bit too high, if mid-cycle it's okay but may be a bit low. Clomid (clomiphene) is a stilbene derivative structurally totally different from E2, there is no way to mistake CC or its metabolites for E2.
