 4  Anovulation Horrible hot flashes. Terrible abdominal pain/extreme bloating. By the 3rd round I wanted to quit because the side effects are brutal. Fortunately I was already on antidepressants so didn't experience much mood disruption besides on an odd day. I'm now pregnant and glad I powered through the 3rd cycle F 29 5 days

 1  Fertility I would not recommend this drug to anyone stay away from it. I had minor hot flashes the 5days I was taking it. The side effects came after finishing my dose : panic attacks, horrible anxiety, mood disturbance. I hope this is temporary and will go away after I get my period. Only positive thing is I ovulated white on clomid hope I am pregnant It is so bad I can't function properly as I am having severe panic attacks randomly. I also feel like something funny is happening around my chest area. F 36 5 days

 5  Infertility no side effects I have been trying for a very long time to get pregnant. Almost five years. I've got clomid (clo2preg) and the first cycle did not work which I expected. Then come the second cycle I have just found out that I am going to be a mom to my first bundle of joy! F 30 2 months

 3  TTC- boost ovulation Lots of bloating and pressure during ovulation. During my first cycle, I had such intense cramping 3 days post ovulation that I thought I had a ruptured cyst. Similar pain and pressure on cycle number 2 where it's uncomfortable to even walk. A plus is that I had 2 mature follicles both cycles and ovulated. Still no pregnancy, but age is probably the cause. Some annoying side effects included severe breakouts, irritability, mild dizziness and issues with short term memory. F 42 5 days

 1  Trying to Conceive It is too soon to tell if this worked as I finished my fifth and final dose yesterday, but I do want to provide caution on the mental effects. My doctor warned that it could cause depression and anxiety and I should've taken that warning more seriously. Similarly to another experience posted, I have been experiencing sever depression and hopelessness for the past 2 days. I just want to cry and be alone. I think about how short life is and what we are all doing here. This is very unlike me. It is so bad, I had to book an appointment for a therapist. Hoping it works because I will not do another round on Clomid. Trying to conceive since April 2020. Miscarried at 7 weeks in September 2020. Experienced a chemical pregnancy in March 2021. Ovulating with no underlying conditions. My doctor suggested Clomid to increase and speed up my chances of a successful pregnancy. F 36 5 days

 4  Irregular periods and ovulation I didnt have any issues while taking my first round. All though I was warned about nausea. Symptoms seemed to start after the 5 days. On day 8 I had a little nausea nothing severe it was manageable. On day 13(ovulation) sex was uncomfortable my ovaries felt inflammed. Day 14 symptoms worsened. Abdominal pain and ovaries feel heavy and ache. It hurts to cough or using lower muscles to get up. I can compare the pain to severe period cramps or the feeling after giving birth. As i have a 3 year old i vaguely remember. Overall it did its job by helping me ovulate. Hopefully i only have to do 1 round because the ovarie pain is not delightful. F 31 5 days

 5  To achieve ovulation (PCOS) I started taking clomid and only had very minor headaches for the duration of my treatment and hot flashes. Cold one minute, sweating the next. I had some ovary cramping on my 4th and 5th day of taking the clomid. Overall, my nerves got the best of me and this medication barely affected me. I hope it works and gives me my miracle child!

 2  unexplained infertility Zero libido, vaginal dryness, fatigue, depression, irritability, mood swings After 10 months of unexplained infertility, I took 50mg/Clomid on days 3-7. My luteal phase has been on the shorter side lately (10-12 days) so I was hoping that it would give me the progesterone boost I needed to have a longer luteal phase. The side effects were terrible by the 5th day of the pill, but I was encouraged that my Day 21 progesterone check showed that I had ovulated. Unfortunately, I got my period with a 9-day luteal phase, which is unprecedented for me. My OBGYN put me on 100mg for the next month, to see if the luteal phase would lengthen, but it was a complete disaster. Not only were the side effects unbearable, but I didn't appear to ovulate at all. This was the first month out of 12 that I never got a positive OPK. I had a 17-day luteal phase (probably due to progesterone supplementation) and then got a weirdly short, heavy period. All in all, this drug was an utter failure. I haven't felt this hormonal and terrible for a long time. Zero chance of trying it again. F 32 10 days

 1  To get pregnant I wanted to die!. I've never in my life had a negative thought or anxiety until I took clomiphene. After the 2 day I felt sad and scared then I couple more day pass after finishing my last does on the 5 day is when everything really started. I started feeling really scared to my core and depressed about getting old and knowing that the time we have on this earth is so short I felt what is the point of life and everything eventually we are going to die. And other negative scare thoughts. I've never felt this way in my life I didn't know what depression was till the day I took clomiphene. I'm on 10th day after the last 100ml I took, my side effects are still there mild but there i still feel and think about those thoughts and the anxiety is there I'm so scared this damaged me permanently. Can I recover!! Please someone. It's my first time taking this medication and never again. It's not as bad as the first week on clomiphene but I still don't fine joy in the little things in life like I used to its so hard to feel any hope. 34 5 days
