Anovulation happens when an egg is not released by ovaries in the fallopian tubes and the woman can not get pregnant; it can be caused by many factors, the most common of which are abnormal weight gain, stress, excessive exercise, bulimia, as well as various health-related conditions and disorders like pituitary or thyroid problems and polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Even though there are many symptoms of anovulation like increased body and facial hair, absence or infrequent menstruation, excessive bleeding during a period, reduced PMS symptoms and others, the lack of ovulation can only be confirmed by a qualified doctor, usually after running ultrasound or blood test.
Ovulation can be induced with various remedies, but these should only be prescribed on an individual basis. There are certain risks to inducing ovulation with drugs and they are usually associated with the increased chances of conceiving twins and even triplets. Still, once prescribed, nost of the drugs work pretty well and have helped thousands of couples to start a family.
One of the drugs that is prescribed if a woman has been diagnosed with anovulation is Clomiphene, which is usually sold as Clomid or generic Clomid, but can also be marketed as Serophene and Milophene. Before explaining how Clomiphene acts and what its success rates are, it is worth pointing out the difference between generic Clomid and Clomid - the brand name pill is what you will find in your local pharmacy, while if you are shopping online, you will most likely be ordering generic Clomid. As always, when you purchase pills off the World Wide Web, you should be very careful and order them from reputable pharmacies only. The generic drugs are cheaper, still you need to know that you are getting exactly what you are paying money for! Also, you should never start taking any drug without consulting a doctor - only he or she can tell you on what can work for you - and in the case of treating anovulation this is vital!
If you have been prescribed Clomiphene, a quick search on Yahoo or Google will convince you just how powerful this medication is. Internet forums are full of stories of women who have had healthy babies after their first or second cycle of Clomid. The Clomiphene 50mg is just one of the three most commonly sold doses and you will also find pills of 25mg and 100mg - and which one you take should be decided by your doctor only!
Still, the drug can cause adverse side effects, but the majority of the women either don't see any or the effects are mild; in case you have bad reaction after taking the Clomid, you should seek medical advice as soon as possible. It is also extremely important that you are monitored while taking this drug - this should have been already discussed with your doctor, but in case it hasn't, you should ask him what procedures and tests should be run while you are taking the Clomid.
