Can u get Clomid thru GP ?

[Danni]

GUESS WHAT????
Gp's can now prescribe clomid! Yes I am serious! I am able to start taking it today, rather than waiting another 2 months to see the specialist for the script! whoooo

Mabello - that's great news is that in every state though?? I'm exploring my options, not yet sure if i'll need clomid or not....

Can you take clomid to help you ovulate a few days earlier???? Can it be used to regulate ovulation as in when you ovulate? I ovulate every cycle.

I would presume it is in every state Ren, as it was a federal legislation that prevented GPS from prescribing it in the first place, but please don't quote me on that.

Im not really up to date with my clomid info these days as it has been a while since I last took it (2 years ago) but Im pretty sure they only offer it to people who struggle to ovulate each cycle. But check with your specialist

Ren- Clomid regulates ovulation and therfore can make you ovulate earlier if that is part of the problem. This may sound like TMI, but without clomid I was getting EWCM the day before AF arrived (not sure what that meant, but I was thinking I was oing very late, if at all). After 1st month on clomid I got EWCM, pos. OPK and o pain on CD16 (all which I never had before). i think it brought my o earlier.

hey
i was getting excited after i read that GPs could prescribe clomid and after doing some research i got down. here is a link that states that GPs are not allowed to prescribe ovulatory stimulates ( they need a warrant number or something?)

if u can prove me wrong i will be very happy again.

I have no idea where to find the info to suggest that they can prescribe it but why not pop into your local gp and ask treena? My gp double checked with his boss who said yes they can now prescribe?
