Hello,
thanks for using health care magic.
Fertyl ( active ingredient clomiphene) is an ovulation inducer and it acts by inhibiting oestrogen actions there by enabling increase secretion of the hormone FSH which causes growth of follicles in the ovary. Prolong intake of fertyl could lead to hyper-stimulation of the ovaries with resultant multiple follicles developing leading to multiple pregnancies.
However, if the level of oestrogen is sufficiently low, cervical mucous may become thicker or harsh to sperm there by making it difficult for the sperms to go through.
Normal side effects of fertyl include heat flushes, headaches, mood swings, visual disturbances etc but there are individually dependent and 100mg per day is a fair enough dose of clomiphene.
Best regards and hope this helps you.
