Hi,

Clomid is used to cause ovulation in women with certain medical conditions (such as polycystic ovary syndrome) that prevent naturally occurring ovulation. Clomid is usually taken for 5 days, starting on the 5th day of your menstrual period. Follow your doctor's instructions.You will most likely ovulate within 5 to 10 days after you take Clomid.

To improve your chance of becoming pregnant, you should have sexual intercourse while you are ovulating. Your doctor may have you take your temperature each morning and record your daily readings on a chart. This will help you determine when you can expect ovulation to occur.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
