Abstract This article reported a rare case of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) following oral clomiphene. The patient was instructed to take clomiphene on the 5th day of menstruation, 50 mg daily for 5 days, without any medical examination or laboratory tests before administration of clomiphene. The treatment outcome was ideal by conservative treatment. This reminded that full assessment and risk prediction should be performed before the prescription of clomiphene. And clomiphene should be used only when indicated. What’s more, high risk factors of the particular patient should be taken into full consideration.
