The drug Clomid which is used quite often to induce fertility among women should not be consumed irrationally and not without the advice of the individual doctors to which each women is a patient of, as each doctor may have different suggestion and protocols and therefore it should not be used without a second opinion from the doctor concerned.
The most widely common dosage of the drug is 50 milligrams (mg), taken for a course of five days.
  The drug is taken from day 3 through to day 7 or from day 5 to day 9 of a woman's period cycle.
The consumption of the drug on the first day of a woman's cycle is not advised as that is the day when there is menstrual bleeding and not just spotting.
The drug may have different results for the many women who use it so one should not be alarmed if a doctor says something quite different and contrary to the ovulation and pregnancy rates which have shown to be similar whether the drug is initiated on day two, three, four or five because the doctor concerned might be following a different protocol or method.
  If the prescribed dose of 50 mg of the drug does not work, the dosage may be increased with a consultation with the female patient's doctor, according to his/her judgment for a successive cycle.
The doctor may find it necessary to increase the consumption of Clomid by another 50 mg if the results of the first half have proven unsatisfactory, however a second dosage is not highly recommended by the makers of the drug.
An increase in the dose of say about 150 mg of Clomid may seem to heighten the chances of a pregnancy but then that does not always hold true.
  Dosage at such a high level may make conception more cumbersome, therefore a judicious use of the drug is always advised because it is better to be safe than sorry later on, as a need for instant results may further spoil a woman's chances of getting pregnant.
The regular use of 50 mg is thus highly eulogized.
