| 4 | PCOS TTC | squeasy feeling, felt alot more cold in hands & feet, feet sweating a lot more (nothing major) | i read all comments here to be mentally prepared for the worst. i guess that helps & i dont experience anything bad at all. perhaps because i combined metformin+clomid, and dont experience any major side effects or hunger pangs. | F | 37 | 5 days | 2/4/2009 | 3 | PCOS | Irritable, headaches, unable to sleep, hungry all the time. I also had a terrible pain in my right side for two days right before the actual ovulation. | This is my second round, and I am feeling hopeful. I am very crampy though. I know alot of people this drug has helped, and I know about just as many that it has not helped. | F | 26 | 2 months | 1/29/2009 | 4 | PCOS and TTC | Headaches, extreme mood swings - hysterical crying all day; angry over nothing; and then happy; felt like I was bipolar., metallic taste in my mouth after last pill till end of period, cramping/twinges from cd 10 to end of cycle, feeling like I was in a mental fog, constantly starving, (I actually gained 2 pounds each cycle), fatigue, breast tenderness to the extreme, itchy skin, no cm, almost no coping skills all month long, irritable, blurry vision (mostly at night and when using computer). When AF arrived, the cramps were the worst that they have ever been but my dr assured me it's because I actually O'd this month. The cramps are so bad that I feel constipated, nauseous, bloated, like I am about to have diarrhea, and explode all at the same time. It comes in waves but there is no comfortable position right now, and heating pads (which usually help my cramps) are not doing anything right now. All I can do is cry. | I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 13, and have had the lap. surgery to remove the cysts and endometriosis about 3 years ago, I tried unsuccessfully to get pregnant during that time and am trying clomid now. Before clomid, I did ovulate once in a blue moon but I wasn't charting or testing then. With clomid, I'm beginning my 3rd cycle now, I ovulated on the second cycle and have high hopes on the 3rd cycle, I am using the basal, cm and opk's. I take 50mg on cd 5-9 and experience extreme side effects cd 12- cd 28. I'm grateful for clomid, this is my last cycle I get to try it, so I hope it works this time. Good luck to all you other ladies that are ttc. | F | 23 | 2 months | 1/28/2009 | 4 | Not ovulating | I was prescribed 50mg once a day on days 3-7. I experienced sleepiness and hot flashes and that's about it. The sleepiness was the first 2 days and then the hot flashes came the last 3 days. Other than that, I had no problems. | 35 | 5 days | 1/21/2009 | 2 | TTC/ Infertility | Severe moodiness, irritbility, trouble sleeping, significant weight gain. | I went through three rounds of Clomid after laproscopy to remove cysts, and with negative results. I am only 21, so I should be able to concieve pretty easily, so it was dissapointing. I am trying a natural remedy for now, and may consider Clomid if I get desperate. However, my husband has begged me never to take it again whenever the conversation arises. I think it is just one of those things that works well for some people, and not so well for others. I have friends who used it with great results, especially for those who already had children. I have found a lot of feedback that points to second time mothers having a lot more success than women trying to concieve for the first time. | F | 21 | 3 months | 1/12/2009 | 4 | not ovulating | nausea,tiredness,bloated,extreme pain in abdomen first month.Blurred vision occasionally,horrible hot flushes.Feeling a bit cranky | have ovulated both rounds of clomid.Been trying for 3 years and have never ovulated so im over the moon its working! | F | 22 | 2 months | 12/21/2008 | 3 | ttc/pcos | i have done four cycles on 50mg of Clomid. no symptoms while taking the pills (days 3-7), but second half of each cycle (days 15-30) i had breast tenderness, bloating, extreme fatigue. but the worst was the INSANE HUNGER! i was eating everything in sight and gained 10 pounds the first two months. i managed to avoid gaining more the second two months on the drug because i realized what was happening, and i've already started losing the weight without too much work now that i'm off the drug. | i did ovulate while on this medication, and my periods came at 28 or 30 days each cycle, but i didn't get pregnant. :( good luck everyone! | F | 29 | 120 days | 12/12/2008 | 3 | anovulation | Major moodiness--fine one moment and horribly depressed the next, fatigue/lack of motivation, food cravings | I took 50 mg clomid on days 3-7 of my cycle. I noticed the side effects right away and they feel like they are beginning to subside now, at day 20. This is definitely hard on my husband and until I realized it was probably the clomid, I thought I was going crazy. | F | 36 | 5 days | 12/10/2008 | 3 | not ovulating, progest. low | Headache, DIZZINESS, nausea, depression, moodiness, just don't feel good. | I started month 1 on 50mg and did not ovulate, currently trying 100mg, so we'll see if it worked. I should ovulate this week, I hope! | F | 26 | 5 days | 12/5/2008 | 3 | unexplained infertility | headaches, emotional wreck and irritable | Took 100mg everyday for days 5 - 9 of my cycle; followed by 10 day hormone check and on day 12 Ultrasound to check ovaries. Hopefully next week I am in getting IUI and will be pregnant (God Willing) | F | 37 | 5 days | 12/4/2008 | 3 | To ovulate....get pregnant | Headaches, VERY emotional, even after period. Sad, then happy. | This is my week to ovulate. Took 50 mg on days 3-7. First round. Good luck to me! | F | 25 | 5 days | 12/2/2008 | 3 | getting pregnant | highly emotional, lots of crying, and depression. | We have been trying to get pregnant for over a year. My doc just put on 100mg of Clomid and this should be my ovulation week, so I am keeping my fingers crossed. I hope it works the first time around because the side effects are hard. | F | 29 | 5 days | 12/1/2008 | 5 | to get preg. (raise progest. level) | (None) 50 mg for 5 days I felt more balanced while taking clomid | had been trying to get preg. for 4 yrs. Started taking clomid and by the grace of GOD the results ended with a healthy baby boy! | F | 30 | 5 days | 11/27/2008 | 4 | TTC | The only side effect I have had is increased appetite with abnormally extreme hunger pains. Other than that, nothing. Still had a lot of cervical fluid, which definitely helped when TTC. | This month was the first time I ovulated on time without any guess work. The ovulation predictor test was positive on day 17, which has never happened for me that early. So far this drug has taken away the stress of "will I ovulate this month and when" which seems to have run over and over in my head the past year. This is my first month on it and I am 8 dpo. | F | 28 | 1 months | 11/27/2008 | 2 | to get pregnant | started on 100mg first month no side effects apart from my period was very dried up almost like paste and bad odour. second month just past on 200mg no problems during five days of taking clomid but severe breast pain especially nipples and lower uterus pain which has now been there for 18 days so severe to day that I had to kneel on floor and get my husband to run me a cold bath to help with pain. five hours later there is still a muscular type pain but not nearly as severe. I have also found myself emotional and that taking clomid is interfering with everyday activities. | F | 38 | 5 days | 11/22/2008 | 4 | not ovulating | bloating, mild headaches, not hungry, mild anxiety | This is my second time on clomid. Hopefully it works this time! | F | 32 | 5 days | 11/20/2008 | 5 | infertility | slight weight gain (maybe 4 pds) | on my 5th cycle of clomid, I became pregnant! I'm so excited. Without this medicine, it would have been impossible. I was on 50mg. | F | 27 | 5 days | 11/17/2008 | 3 | unexplained infertility | nauseous,not hungry,mood swings and highly emotional,1st cycle of clomid 50mg 4th day.i hope it gets easier and is worth it.. | F | 30 | 4 days | 11/15/2008 | 4 | PCOS | More moody than usual in the second half of my cycle, but nothing terrible | Got pregnant with my daughter on my first 50mg cycle (days 2-6, day 21 blood test was 63). Now on 3rd cycle (50mg) trying for no. 2 (blood tests so far this time in 30s and 40s so may ask for higher dose next month). | F | 32 | 3 months | 10/22/2008 | 3 | to ovulate | Constipation, depression, major moodiness, trouble sleeping, headaches, nausea | We have been trying for 5 years for a baby and I am on my second dose of clomid, 100mg and the side effects come quicker when you increase the doseage. I hope my husband will not hate me at the end of this. I has been very hard for him and me.....I do not like it at all that I have such uncontrolable side effects. But I keep telling myself one day at a time. | F | 29 | 2 months | 10/10/2008 |
