    There is no connection between the two. Some peopel with PCOS will have BOTH long cycles and short LP but the two operate independent from each other.

    Hi, just wondering where the info is on clomid swaying girl? Is it a significant sway? I'm very curious as my first was conceived with clomid and well he is a boy I'm know I had many 'boy' sway factors that contributed to conceiving a boy that were stronger than the clomid being a pink sway (I wasn't swaying in anyway as I didn't even know about it then).

    I wouldn't recommend using clomid without a valid medical reason, if you have normal cycles it could be more likely to overstimulate your ovaries and you would be at higher risk of twins. The fertility specialist I saw was very careful with clomid and made sure I had scans to check there was only one mature egg the two times I used it (DS1 conceived first cycle, then m/c when ttc #2).

    Purple, there are several research studies that show a big shift in the gender ratio with both clomid and femara.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after removìng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    Yes, we are getting 75% range with Clomid + diet and one attempt. This has also been backed up by several studies.

    People who need Clomid to conceive may be coming into it with a higher chance of a boy to start with. Plus, when you're doing many things that sway blue, those things still do sway blue, Clomid or no.

    I always prefer people use Clomid under the advice of a doctor but you do NOT need to have a "valid medical reason" to take it. Tons of people have taken it and in reality the main risk factor for overstimmed ovaries is having PCOS (which is the largest group of people who are prescribed it) and of course taking too high a dose, which unfortunately are all too often prescribed by doctors. :/

    How to ask for clomid?

    What happened at your appt? He gave you femara instead? And what did you wind up saying?
