PCOS Stories 13 Getting Pregnant With Clomiphene Citrate
I saw Karen today in my fertility clinic.
She is a 32 year old woman whom I had diagnosed as having PCOS after stopping the contraceptive pill to conceive, and not having had a menstrual cycle for 10 months.

Josie’s Story: Getting Pregnant With Ovulation Induction
I want to talk to you about Josie who by the way is pregnant and well now after her fertility treatment, but she did develop two known problems as a consequence of her fertility treatment.
Josie is a 29 year old university student with PCOS who had been trying to conceive for 18 months before I saw her in my clinic. We tried to help her to conceive through the fertility treatment of ovulation induction with the hormone tablet Clomiphene Citrate (Clomid), but no ovulation occurred despite increasing the tablet dose up to 150 mg of Clomid.
In fertility talk we call this having “Clomid resistance”.
