title: Quadruplets following cessation of clomiphene citrate. A case of sustained effect.
abstract: We report a case of quadruplet birth in a young oligomenorrheic woman, who had been prescribed clomiphene citrate for two consecutive cycles. She conceived following cessation of treatment and an intervening menstruation. Ultrasonic follow-up which concurred with the last menstrual period dating indicated multiple ovulation as a sustained effect of clomiphene citrate medication.
