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  Late ovulation Bloating, mood swings I had been trying to conceive for 12 months with no success. So I went to see a DR who put me on Clomid. I have been taking Clomid for four months now. On the second month i feel pregnant, however a week after finding out I was pregnant I miscarried. As you could imagine I was on an emotional rollercoaster. Well first month after miscarriage nothing and now this month I am feeling extremly bloated. Who knows if it will happend and when, but I am getting very impatient F 24 4 months

 2  PCOS Horrible pelvic pain, almost like gas but 100 times worse. This is my first round on day 2 and I will not do another round after this if it does not work, I will give my metformin a couple more months to work. I considered stopping the treatment, but I only have 3 days left, hopefully the pain tonight will not be as bad. F 28 2 days

 2  Blockages in tubes previous ectopic Hot flushes, big increase in apetite (hence weight gain), irritable, general feeling of being uncomfortable, emotional wreck! After 2 failed pregnancies last year & tests for patency of tubes, tried 3 months with no joy. 1st month was convinved it had worked as having all pregnancy symptoms but found out they were just side affects (nausea, fatigue, stomach cramps) which seams a bit cruel! Am consulting doctor for another 3 months at higher level, I know this works for lots of other people so would like to persevere with it. Only draw back is that I've put on a stone over the 3 months, but didn't realise I was eating more for the first 6 weeks, the second 6 weeks have been a battle! F 26 3 months

 2   i got fat and had a migraine on the 5th day of taking 100mg. I have been taking 5 cycles of clomid at 100mg. It did not help me ovulate even though Ovulation stick indicated as such on the 17th day. I went and got 2 ultrasounds to verify. My follicles were still too small and there were no sight of a dominate follicle. I'll go in for another ultrasound on day 22. I'm worried about the side effects as my doctor has not monitored my ovaries since putting me on clomid. The doctor's office is recommending me to increase dosage to 150mg for the next cycle. I will do clomid one more time. After that, I will have to consider an acupuncturist and natural remedies to balance my hormones, and start over. The thought of not being able to conceive is depressing. I've been TTC for 1.5 years now. F 37 5 months

 5  Not ovulating Mild lightheaded feeling, miild hot flashes in the middle of the night. I got off of birth control and my period never came back. After many tests it came down to low hormone levels. I had eggs sitting there ready to drop but because no surges the wouldn't drop. I am on CD12 and I have been getting twinges in my ovary. Hope that means its working! F 25 5 days

 4  increase statistics Really mild headache on day 1. Intense cramping around ovulation - felt like there was a party in my pelvic region! But immediately after ovulation, felt 100% normal. Waiting to see if preg resulted. The scarey side effects are so individual - if you're considering it, give it a try - you never know what your own experience will be. F 35 5 days
