Is It Safe To Take Sifasi HP Instead Of Clomid For Conception?

HI,I have been trying for pregnancy for last 6 months. I have PCOS. Irregular periods. I get my cycle only after taking progesterone. I was on clomid for 3 cycles. On third cycle when i was on clomid, 1st month 1 pill,2nd 2pills,3rd 3pills. Upon ultra sound, doc found that there were no stimulating follicles and reffered me to a fertility center. I visited fertility specialist, i m little sceptical about the tests and i dint find them decdicated. they just trying to get the money from us which is not covered in our insurance. after unnecessary ultra sound which i had earlier month, he did it again just to check the same, n came up same answer. finally he wanted to do some xray again ultrasound, and then he wud give me clomid again but 4 pills this time. what im thinking is take 4 clomid pills this time, if nothing comes up then i go to specialist and take tests. what do u advice?? family doc has advised me SifasiHp 5000. does sifasi help or clomid with my case?thanks

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

FDA does not approve the dosage of Clomid to be more than 100 mg / day and not more than 5 days in a cycle. However, the studies confirm that about 80 % of the patients start ovulation after 3 cycles of Clomid 50 mg / day. Similarly, 40-45% of patients taking this dose become pregnant within 6 cycles of this drug. In your case, as you have already taken 3 cycles of Clomid without any ovulation, therefore Sifasi HP seems a better option, now to try. In infertility cases, it is used to produce ovulation. Its use generally results pregnancy in about 10% of cases, where as in 20% cases if used in IVI cases.

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

Regards,
