It's not bad, it's just higher than the minimal one and is likely to give you stronger side effects (worse headaches for example).

I did 7.5 and thought it was much easier than clomid which gave me hot flashes and a headache. My doctor said 7.5 was the dose backed by research

This is my first time trying it and my RE prescribed 5mg for some reason. Maybe it's because I have DOR and am likely harder to stimulate? Is a higher dose bad?

it's a bit high, did you try 2.5 and it didn't work?

Thanks, dose is 5mg for days 3-7.

Headaches yes, spotting no. Every time for 4 cycles.
I was on 2.5 days 5-9.

What's your dose? Mine was 2.5 days 3-7, headache only once, no spotting.

Hi - on my first cycle with Letrozole and wanted to see if anyone else experienced bad headaches and spotting. I am on CD7 and my last dose is tonight, but I started spotting lighting this AM and it has been pretty consistent. And, I have had a bad headache all week. It starts when I wake up and actually goes away in the evening.

These normal side effects? Hopefully it means its working LOL.
