Hi,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic .
Yes the treatment is proper. Clomid helps multiple follicles to mature and rupture . Thus increasing chances of pregnancy .
progesterone helps maintain early pregnancy and also growth of endometrium. With this I would suggest you to go for IUI . Here healthy sperms are placed in uterus . This will increase chances of pregnancy .
Hope I have been helpful .
