Frequently asked questions about clomiphene

Clomiphene (generic Clomid) is a medication used to stimulate ovulation in women who are struggling with infertility. It works by stimulating the production of select hormones that support the growth and release of a mature egg (a process called ovulation).

Clomiphene is usually prescribed by a primary care physician, OB/GYN, or fertility specialist. It is available in its generic form or under the brand name Clomid. It can be prescribed on Sesame after an online fertility consult, at your provider's discretion. For more information, talk to a doctor about whether clomiphene is right for you.

Clomiphene a fertility medication used to induce ovulation (egg production) in women who are unable to become pregnant (infertility).

Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive despite having frequent, unprotected intercourse for at least a year. A woman with infertility may experience irregular or nonexistent menstrual cycles.

Infertility can be caused by a combination of circumstances that impede pregnancy. Fortunately, several safe and efficient treatments can dramatically increase your chances of conceiving.

Because clomiphene stimulates certain hormone responses, it has other off-label uses in addition to treating infertility. Talk to your health care provider about what these are and whether or not clomiphene is right for you.

Currently, online prescriptions for clomiphene on Sesame are limited to the following states: AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, MD, ME, MI, MO, MT, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, SC, TN, TX, UT, VA, VT, WA, WI and WY.

Clomiphene helps you to produce an egg by tricking your body into thinking that your estrogen levels are lower than they are. This causes the pituitary gland to secrete more follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). These increased levels of FSH stimulate the ovaries to produce an egg follicle (or multiple follicles). Higher levels of LH stimulate ovulation so that the egg follicle(s) can be released so they can be fertilized.

Many people who use clomiphene experience no adverse effects at all. However, there are some side effects that you should be aware of. The most common of these are:

  • Flushing (a feeling of warmth)
  • Upset stomach or vomiting
