Answer
Hello,

Taking Clomid will not necessarily help your problem, which is due to your husband's sperm.  It only resolves issues that are related to irregular ovulation.  Your doctor will or should recommend another method, after a few cycles of no success with Clomid, such as IUI or IVF.  Usually they have to do 2 or 3 cycles of IUI first, which can help with irregular sperm.  I would suggest asking to move forward to this procedure to increase your chances, rather than wasting your time with Clomid, which will likely not help your specific situation.  Best wishes.
