A member asked:

I'm trying to be conceive about 1 year but no good luck and i diagnosed pcos. i took femara and metformin. now can i take clomid (clomiphene)? pls let me know

Yes: Some drs feel that Femara is a better ovulation inducer than clomid (clomiphene). You can take one or the other, but i would stick with your doctors expertise.
