Hi, as far as thyroid treatment is concerned, you must continue your treatment to keep your TSH within normal limits. Clofert is used for inducing ovulation in women who have irregular or no ovulation. I hope your doctor has tested your ovulation status & has found some problem to justify this line of management. In women with normal ovulation & no history of fertility problems there is no indication for clofert (rather it should be avoided) as it is not without risks. Some doctors prescribe Duphaston for supporting any anticipated pregnancy (hormonal support) . I think you should discuss with your doctor about the indications of last two medicines as she or he knows the most about you. Take care.
