Q&A: Can I take Clomid if I have ovarian cysts?

by Dr. Randy Morris

Can I take Clomid if I have ovarian cysts?

The simple answer is yes. The more complicated explanation is that it depends on the type of ovarian cyst, the number of cysts, and their size. Women with cysts due to ovarian cancer should not take Clomid. Most physicians will hold off on giving Clomid if a woman has a cyst or cysts that are very large or if there are many cysts present. If a cyst is producing hormones, it is probably a good idea to wait until the abnormal hormone production has ended before starting Clomid.
