Hello there, This is my first post here in a very long time. Hello

DF & I have been trying for No 2 for 9 cycles now, Ive been to see a gyno & Fertility clinic and have had full bloods, scans, a cycle tracking and a HSG, I have mild PCOS but I am ovulating. So Ive just been back to the gyno a couple days ago and he has prescibed clomid to try for a few cycles, with a day 21 blood test. But then I got a call from the fertility clinic, asking me what I wanted to do now my cycle tracking is over, I told the nurse Im trying clomid for a few cycles. She said she would reccomend having cycle monitoring done (an ovulation induction cycle thru the ivf clinic is $325 and thats really just for the nurses time, scans are charged seperately) So id still be taking clomid but would be having scans to check the follicles, blood test to confirm Ovulation dates, follow up blood tests to check progesterone levels arent dipping etc)

So now Im wondering whether its safe to take clomid without monitoring ?? Id rather not part with another $325.00 if many ladies do it without monitoring, or if its safer for me to have the monitoring ??

Have you taken Clomid without monitoring ?
