Question

Thoughts on Letrozole/Femara?!?

Recently saw a fertility doctor and did a months worth of lab work. The conclusion was I'm not ovulating due to low estrogen (187 estradiol before ovulation vs. 250 which is what doctor says they strive for).

Next cycle I will be taking letrozole on day 3. Just wondering what anyone's experiences with this has been.

Thank you for sharing!

Letrozole definitely helps me ovulate but I struggle side effects. Unquenchable hunger being the first, rapid weight gain and usually a day per cycle of barely controllable rage. I don't even get angry at anything real, and I'm usually a very calm and fairly stable person, so I try to just laugh it off. I then also get heart burn.
