What Is The Cause For Blighted Ovums After Taking Two Rounds Of Clomid?
I have PCOS and have taken two rounds of clomid and both ended in blighted ovums. I m not sure if I should take another round as I m afraid it will end the same way. If your infertile, can you still have like a fake pregnancy with the use of Clomid? Thank you for your time.

Hi welcome to healthcaremagic.
I have gone through your question.
Clomid (clomiphene) prescribed to increase follicles size. It doesnot cause blighted ovum.
Blighted ovum for consecutive 2 times then i would advise you to rule out
1 chromosomal abnormality,
2 torch inf ( toxoplasmosis rubella cytomegalovirus and herpes).
hope i have answered your question.
Would be happy to help you further.
Take care.
