I?m pcos diagnosed i?m on letrozole for ovulation and we?re planning for our second baby. I?m prescribed letrozole 5 mg on cd 3-7. I just wanted to know what is the change if we take on cd-4 or cd-5. I don?t ovulate on my own or get a period on my own. On the second cycle I got conceived and miscarriage occurred around 7 week. After that I had one round of letrozole same days and dosage. Wanted to know do we ovulate the same time with the letrozole plan each cycle. Thank you.

Hai.. If your cycles haven't been regular but you bleed without any drugs to induce it, it means you are producing eggs but they are not maturing.. Starting Letrozole on Day 2 or 3 is for recruiting eggs and on day 4 or 5 is for maturing them on time.. So you can preferably start Letrozole on day 4 or 5 and go for meticulous monitoring of follicular growth and induce ovulation on time.. Hope your husbands physical and sperm factors are all satisfactory.. Best wishes..
