Letrozole/Femara funky cycle?

Heather • 42 and finally pregnant with baby #1, Comer, GA

Hey guys!

So, this is interesting.

On my last cycle, I took the low dose of Letrozole from CD3-CD7. Instead of opening 1-2 extra follicles, I had 6 open up. So, my doc was basically like, “You best be wearing a condom, because you might not want to risk 5-6 multiples” (not verbatim 😂). I hate that I lost a month with my age and trying for number one, but now I’m back to the drawing board.

My period this cycle was right on time and normal. We had planned to do an <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> this weekend, but I have not gotten a positive ovulation test. I’m always regular, so this is odd.

Is it possible for Letrozole/femara to affect your ovulation schedule? Even if your period was right on time? Who’s had something similar happen?
