Default How Much Soy to take?

Hello! I've been taking Clomid for the last 2 months and just recently found out DH has low morphology. So I'm off the Clomid now while we wait to for his urologist appt. So I figured, why not and try soy to see what it does for me. I wasn't Oing on my own, but 50 mg of Clomid worked. What is the best dose for me to start with? I was thinking 150, but I'm not too sure. Any advice?

150 mg sounds quite a lot to start with.

I took 100mg (cd 3-7) on my first cycle back in Jan 2006 and I managed to O on cd 12 with that. Then I went down with the dose (did 50mg and later 75mg) and days taking it (5-9) as I thought that was a bit too early O. Those didn't work so fine. And now when we started ttc - I've been taking 100mg cd 3-7. I hope it works.

But, I think you could start with 100mg (many start with 80mg).

What happens if I don't O and I don't get AF? When should I start taking it again to induce O?

If you don't O you should try to induce af with progesterone rather than do another round of soy before af. At least, that is what I have heard. And also soy is bad for fertility if taken too much, too often. So, better start with lower dose and only once per cycle. HTH
