CLASS and MECHANISM of Action
Generic Clomid is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). It is mainly used in female infertility due to anovulation. Generic Clomid initiates a series of endocrine events culminating in a preovulatory gonadotropin surge and subsequent follicular rupture. The first endocrine event in response to a course of Generic Clomid therapy is an increase in the release of pituitary gonadotropins. This initiates steroidogenesis and folliculogenesis, resulting in growth of the ovarian follicle and an increase in the circulating level of estradiol. Following ovulation, plasma progesterone and estradiol rise and fall as they would in a normal ovulatory cycle.
Active Ingredients: Clomifene citrate
Inactive Ingredients: pregelatinized cornstarch, corn starch, lactose, magnesium stearate, and sucrose.
What is Generic Clomid PRESCRIBED For?
Generic Clomid is a fertility medication that is used to induce ovulation. Specifically, Generic Clomid works to stimulate a woman’s ovaries to mature an increased number of follicles every month. Because Generic Clomid increases the number of mature follicles in the ovaries, the drug also increases the likelihood of ovulation and pregnancy.
How Should I Take Generic Clomid?
Generic Clomid is taken orally on specific days of your menstrual cycle. Depending upon your fertility clinic, you may be asked to take Clomid on Days 3-7 of your cycle, or Days 5-9 of your cycle. Dosages usually begin at 50 mg. Most women continue on this dosage for a cycle or two. If there is no improvement in ovulation, the dosage can be increased to a maximum of 200 mg per day.
Generic Clomid is normally taken for a maximum of six cycles, after which use will be discontinued if it proves ineffective and another type of infertility treatment will be recommended. Occasionally, Generic Clomid will be combined with additional hormonal medications.

Typically, OHSS disappears without treatment but, without proper monitoring, the syndrome can become dangerous. Potential complications include:
