Clomid therapy for anovulatory infertility

The results of Clomid treatment of 81 infertile patients seeking pregnancy are reported: 60.5 per cent of patients ovulated and 25.9 per cent became pregnant. No unusual side effects of therapy were noted. In general, patients who were oligoovulatory or amenorrheic with evidence of estrogen production had successful responses. These results are comparable to other series. The disparity between ovulation and pregnancy rates in all these studies is noted and a case indicating a Clomid-induced non-corpus luteum source of progesterone production is included.
