IVF Straight After Clomid?
Q: How long would I have to wait after a period of taking clomid before I can start IVF? I have PCOS and my specialist seemed to think I'd need a break so that I wouldn't be at risk of OHSS.
Our Expert's Answer
This information was published 14 years, 7 months ago and was correct at the time of publication. It may not reflect our current practices or regulations.
A: There isn’t a stipulated time after taking Clomid in relation to OHSS. If you are having regular periods then, given that Clomid is a form of ovarian stimulation, it is sensible to allow one normal period after stopping medication before starting IVF.
