Hi Dustmite: yeah, CLomid is really only used as an ovulation induction medication, which just means it helps the body develop mature eggs.

E.g. I'm using Clomid as my body doesn't produce enough of a hormone that helps the eggs to mature. So instead of ovulating, I end up with underdeveloped eggs which are not released, which turn into cysts. Taking Clomid will give me those hormones to mature the egg. I also have to have a HCG (ovidrel) injection to stimulate the release of the egg.
