I was going to go in about how you should try not to use drugs too quickly.. but only about one period in 2 years?? wow.. do they know why? I got married at 19 and my husband and I decided to try to conceive a year later. It took us 9 months to conceive (I'm 8.5 months now).. during the time we were trying my cycles were running anywhere from 30-60 days so I know it's hard when your cycles aren't working and it's just not happening!

Anyways! Have you been checked for PCOS? Are you underweight? I know I didn't get my period till I was 14 because I was very thin.. (even though I already had B-cups).. It may be important to find out what is wrong with your hormones or cycle so that you can best manage your pregnancy once you do get pregnant. If you truly do not menstruate I really think it's best that you figure out WHY and then how to regulate so you have cycles before you get pregnant. Sadly, I've seen people use drugs to get pregnant and then not be able to carry their child to full term because of underlying problems.

& I have spoken with many people who have been on clomid. For some people.. they were trying to conceive for years.. took clomid and the first cycle got pregnant. But I've also heard from people who were trying and took clomid for a long time and it never helped.

Here is some info I found on clomid and twins:

"In clinical studies, about 30 percent of women taking Clomid became pregnant. Of these pregnancies, 7.98 percent were multiple births, including:

Twins -- 6.9 percent

Triplets -- 0.5 percent

Quadruplets -- 0.3 percent

Quintuplets -- 0.1 percent. "

I got that from this site: http://pregnancy.emedtv.com/clomid/clomid-and-twins.html

That's for sure an elevated chance of multiples!! ha.

Good luck to you and your husband btw!
