    Lol, even I struggle to find any good things to say about clomid. I was one of the unlucky ones who had horrendous (but rare) s/e while taking it. Total nightmare for me!

    I know my acu thinks it is very bad for the body (we happened to discuss it a couple of weeks ago), but that doesn't mean she wouldn't be supportive of a patient doing a clomid cycle. Prior treatment with clomid is usually a condition of prescribing the stronger fertility meds, so most of us have to work through that "normal" progression of treatments.

    All you can do is raise the subject with him and see how he responds. If he provides the support you need, then great. If he is unsupportive, then you know you have other options.
