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)

 5  Fertility Slight nausea I'm on cycle day 6, Clomid pill #4 (taking days 3-7) They do taste HORRIBLE, try to take them with food or milk to avoid powder taste on tongue. Slight nausea, but no other side effects. Guess we'll know in about 3 weeks whether or not it works! I'll let you know! F 31 5 days

 4  infertility and irregular ovulation headaches, hot flashes i've been ttc since august 2004, but not ovulating regularly, and also have a varying LP (from 10-16 days) hopefully the clomid will help both problems. the hot flashes weren't bad for me, only lasting a few minutes each time. i just finished my 5th pill (50mg).i took them on cd 4-8 so i'm waiting to see if it works. on the whole though, i didn't think the side effects were that bad, i'll definitly take it again if i need to.

 1  Egg Donor bloating, period-like cramps, moodiness, nausea, fatigue, headaches, crying spells, loss of appetite, loss of concentration, frequent urination, metallic taste in mouth and major hot flashes I'm 27 yrs old with a 6 year old son and have no fertility problems. I joined an egg donor program at a fertility clinic earlier this month to donate my eggs. I was given 150mg of clomid starting cd 5-9. I didn't experience any side effects while taking it but on cd 18 I started having severe bloating, period-like cramps, moodiness, nausea, fatigue, headaches, crying spells, loss of appetite, loss of concentration, frequent urination, metallic taste in mouth and major hot flashes all throughout the day and night. I am now on cd 30 and none of these side effects have subsided...feels like I'm in PMS HELL! I took a hpt and it came back negative but was still convinced I was pg even though my boyfriend and I always use protection. Now I've read all these posts on here and I feel so relieved...the nurse had told me there were no side effects! I wish everyone here good luck and hope the best for you all! F 27 1 months

 4  unexplained infertility Did not experience any side effects on days 5-9. However, around ovulation I experienced moderate cramping for 2 days and became very "weepy" and experienced extreme mood swings. Don't know how successful. This is my first round. We've been TTC for 2 years, so hopefully this will help! F 35 1 times

 3  infertility Abdominal bloating and cramping. Nauseous, overly emotional, short tempered. Minor headaches, insomnia, hot flashes. 100 mg days 5-9. Side effects last from day 5 through ovulation, except for cramping which lasts entire cycle. Menses is extremely heavy and clotted. I have been ovulating and have a regular cycle since taking this medication. Still not pregnant, but it did make me ovulate so I am somewhat satisfied with this medication. F 32 3 months

 4  PCOS Infertility Slightly warmer at night (Not miserable as I expected from others side effects). Actually feel good, NO mood swings (I usually have TERRIBLE PMS!)The only other thing I can feel is a little dull ache in my uterus area -- like something is working down there! This is my first month taking Clomid (50mg) I am on day 4 of 5 right now. I already ovulate but have anywhere from 4.5 to 9.5 progesterone (after ovulation) So hopefully it will help with that. F 34 4 days

 4  PCOS (aligo-ovulation - 3/yr) (written on day 23)50g per day day 2-6. Mild breast pain from day 14-21, very emotional from day 10 onwards. Mild back pain from day 14 (possibly PMT), swollen breasts from day 14, mild nausea. Tablets taste disgusting, advise users to take them with milk F 32 1 months

 2  anovulatory I am already a migraine sufferer. Clomid made the migraines worse to the point that sometimes I could not stand up. Nausea and cramping also side effects as well as mood swings. Was told by my doctor there are no side effects. Depression has also been a problem but could be due to the migraines. Frequent migraines can bring on depression for me. Prior to the Clomid, my migraines were under control. F 38 3 months

 4  LPD-Luteal Phase Deficiency Headaches, Ovarian Cyst, Minor Mood Swings, Bloating of Abdomen, and Cramping. This is my first month on Clomid, 50 mgs cycle day (cd) 5 - 9. I fell within the 5% of women who suffer ovarian cysts during their treatment within my first month. Very painful cd 16 through 18. This has likely the reason for my unsuccessful cycle. However, I'm currently on cd 30, and all pregnancy tests have shown negative, so just waiting to go again on same dosage this next cycle. My cycles were only lasting 23 days prior to this cycle. My progesterone level on cd 21 was 1.5 which is horrible...This month, cd 21 I had a level of 37.9 which is unusually high (I'm no doctor, but believe this could be an inaccurate "cd 21" reading, due to ovarian cyst rupturing on cd 16 leaving my progesterone higher than a normal cd 21 reading). However, my issue being LPD appears to be quite resolved, simply for the fact that I’m on cd 30. Also, the cramping I’ve been experiencing for the past few days reminds me so much of my youth, I believe I’m returning to my former fe F 33 1 months
