Q: Are BBTs accurate with clomiphene?

 

A: Clomid often causes elevated BBTs around the time of taking the medication, and it appears to be more common to have a triphasic BBT without pregnancy. It is also more common to have a long luteal phase without pregnancy. If you want to check for ovulation while on Clomid, you may want to discuss with your doctor if there are other, more reliable, monitoring methods.
