General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Clomiphene is a non-steroidal fertility medication. It causes the pituitary gland to release hormones needed to stimulate ovulation.
What dosage recommended to be taken at proper time needs to be complied with as it would help to ovulate at right time. Timing with this would improve the chances of conceiving. If you have missed few doses, then the stimulation might not be adequate and hence the response needed might not happen.
Kindly consult Gynecologist for advise and plan accordingly for the next cycle.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
