Which of the following statement is true about clomiphene citrate, EXCEPT:
High-Yield Explanation
Although clomiphene is effective in inducing ovulation in perhaps 75% of women, successful pregnancy ensues in only 40-50% of those who ovulate. This has been attributed to clomiphene's inhibition of estrogen action on the endometrium, resulting in an environment that is not optimal for feilization and/or implantation.
