CLOMID  (CLOMIPHENE CITRATE):  This medication is used to treat infertility in women. It works by stimulating an increase in the amount of hormones that support the growth and release of a mature egg (ovulation). This medication is not recommended for women whose ovaries no longer make eggs properly (primary pituitary or ovarian failure).    (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 3  Trying to get pregnant Extremely bloated and the worst hot flashes! I am also cramping so bad that I can hardly walk. I feel as though my cervix is going to fall out. I went to the dr on the 18 day of my cycle and she said that I have three eggs. This was my first cycle on clomid. I have always had regular periods and got pregnant when I was younger but got an abortion. Never took birth control. My Dr recommended clomid for me because my husband has very low sperm count.

 1  for better IUI timing to get preg First time= hot flushes, irritable, very heavy period with more bleeding days and lots of heavey clots second time= strong stomach craming, thinning of endometrium lining, I used it to help with the timing of IUI procedure, as i have to travel interstate for the procedure. Trying to develop the right amount and size of follicles and then have an Ovidrel trigger to stimulate ovulation. I am currently on my second consecutive month of clomid and hoping i have made the right decision to take it. The cramping does not feel normal or healthy. F 34 5 days

 2  No ovulation, TTC Hot flashes, major weight gain (2-3 lbs per cycle), bloated belly, distended lower belly, moody Clomid worked for us in that I did ovulate, but we didn't conceive, even with 2 iui's - ttc our first for 18 months now. It was torture taking it. I stopped after 3 months, then got put back on it for 1 month - begged my dr not to put me on it. We refuse to use it anymore b/c it depressed me, made me gain a ton of weight, and made my belly pooch out. We're just ttc naturally now and if it was meant to be, it will be. F 28 4 months

 4  To ovulate Given the high dosage, I was expecting hell, but it was not too terrible. Hot flashes were pretty bad, but no mood swings or other side effects. Increased vaginal dryness. I’m 9 weeks pregnant!! This was my second month on Clomid. First one (100mg) did not work for me. Good luck to all. F 35 5 days

 3  Unknown infertility I did have great ovulation on clomid, but that is the only positive. I had some mild hot flashes, some mood swings, and at times became pretty emotional. The worst part about clomid for me, has been the dizzy spells. They are so bad I am sometimes afraid to drive. I have decided to take a break from clomid because of the severity of this symptom. F 34 2 months

 3  PCOS First round of 50 mg had my eyes very sensitive to light, hot flashes, nauseated and mood swings. I did not ovulate that round. Bumped up to 100 mg and ovulated on day 13 but no pregnancy. Currently still on 100 mg, CD 17 and still no ovulation. I chart my temps every morning but nothing has picked up yet. However, I don't rely heavily on my temps as there can be so many variables while doing so. The past few days I've been crampy but nothing I can't handle. I have my day 21 progesterone levels done this coming week so we'll find out if it was just my chart F 33 3 months

 5  PCOS Mood swings, depression and anxiety. . . But let's face it, anyone that NEEDS Clomd has been TTC for sometime and who doesn't feel this way whilst dealing with infertility?! I got pregnant on my 1st round of 50mg. We are now TTC #2 and have taken 1 round 50mg and I don't think it has worked this cycle. . . But bring on the rest. Worth every side effect. Good luck to all!

 2  Anovulation Holy Jesus. The side effects are horrible; simply put, personally DEBILITATING. If you're sensitive to medications or anything you put into your body, for that matter, Clomid may not be the right fertility drug for you. I would've appreciated if my OB/GYN told me just how much weight gain is possible on this medication. When I began my 1st cycle of Clomid, I was 119 lbs and a size 2. I'm 5'2"; I'm short and I know it. I've embraced it over the years with short strides in long-distance running. I've been a marathoner and half-marathoner since age 17. I'm now 36. As for the side effects, the hot flashes come and go and are deal-able, but the tremendous weight gain, abdominal bloating and mood-swings are not welcome, at all. The first month I took 50 mg Clomid on days 3-7, I experienced extreme hot-flashes, abdominal bloating that made me appear as if I were 5-6 months pregnant although I certainly was not, bizarre mood-swings that had me both crying and laughing within the same It's 3 days before I am due for my period. THAT, or the grief of experiencing 2 rounds of Clomid has made it possible that I could indeed be pregnant. I'll be sure to post if I get any positive news. Thanks to all the women who have posted here. It certainly helps reading about your experiences and makes me feel like I'm not entirely alone in this journey. F 36 2 months
