Does Clofart increase chance of conceiving twins or triplets?
Patient: I am trying to conceive form past couple of months. My doctor suggested me to take Clofert 100gm for 5 days starting from the 2nd day of my periods. I have read few post which say that intake of Clofert increase chances of  twins / triplets. I not keen in having twins/ triplets. Need your help on this. Thanks! Doctor: Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Clofart are tablets of Clomiphene citrate. Clomiphene citrate is used for induction of ovulation. These tablets do sometimes cause release of multiple eggs from the ovary which may result in multiple pregnancy, that is twins of triplets. Occasionally, there are many eggs released, which is known as hyperstimulation of the ovary. However, if you need induction of ovulation due to failure of natural ovulation, you should not deny the treatment of Clomiphene citrate (Clofart) for the possibility of multiple pregnancy. You need the eggs to get released. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards, Dr. Nishikant Shrotri
