Summary

The aim of this study will be to compare between 4 different induction protocols in women who:

1. Failed to achieve ovulation after clomiphene citrate treatment at a dose of 150mg daily (if the patient can tolerate this dose) for 5 days for 3 cycles or only 100 mg daily for the same duration (if she can't tolerate higher dose)
2. Failed to achieve pregnancy after 3 cycles of ultrasound indicated ovulation with clomiphene citrate treatment at a dose of 100mg or 150mg daily.

All induction protocols will be carried out in non-IVF cycles, and continued for 3 cycles or until pregnancy whichever will be earlier.
