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)

 1  Dr Peress in Boca-"try an IUI Cycle omg- my first two nights at (2) 50 mg I felt great but like my brain was reorganizing itself ir like I was on psychotropic drugs. By night 3 i felt like crap and then stopped and did not take night 4. I had NO known hormonal imbalances and my TPO was elevated before being prescribed this drug-- Thyroid Peroxidase....i later read it was contraindicated if you have adrenal or thyroid sensitivities... my dr ignored it. he was a pompous ignoramous.... my skin started to feel like it was burning after i shot up with ovidrel adn my heart started to palpitate - i spend all day at the cardiologist office with tachacardia ... I have been a whole month off of this and my pulse still seems to be racing daily and my thyroid glands feel swollen and my adrenals seem shot, like ive had 4 cups of coffee... don't take this poison- esp if u don't have a hormonal problem to begin with - or if u do, definitely don't take it- it seems like a god awful drug that is posioning people and leaving them with side effects like Parathesis--- permanent tingling of the right limb and other side effects ...Let's all start a Class Action Lawsuit F 40 3 days

 1  male infertility Horrific mood starting day 3, just overall sense of feeling doom, was tense at everything, tense at noises and bad news. Gets worse at night and would boil into panic attacks and make sleeping extremely difficult. I'd wake up feeling unrefreshed and in a very depressed mood. The anxiety is the worst. If you've had had anxiety or panic attacks in the past, you'd understand what I'm talking about. On top of all this, I noticed this drug's also made me: have heartburn and generally slower digestion/constipation, made me come down with some cold for a few days, gave me a weird taste in my mouth. God this drug is nasty, it messed with my mind so much, those types of side effects are the scariest! If your doctor suggests this, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT take it it'll screw up your life for sure.

 3  Pcos, secondary infertility, ttc dizziness, hot flushes, extreme mood swings, anxiety, headaches, insomnia, restless legs and tiredness. I started clomid 50mg and did not ovulate. Took 100mg month 2 and i ovulated but did not conceive. Took 100mg 3rd month and did not ovulate. My husband also has a low sperm count. Was told can go straight to ivf but am doing 3 more months clomid at 150mg. Trying for 2nd baby 10months now. No issues with #1 at all but diagnosed with secondary infertility now. My ovaries are somewhat resistant to clomid so far. Lots of side affects but will do whatever it takes to complete my family. Feeling very emotional and hopeless, trying to remain positive but am exhausted. Fingers crossed! Good luck to the rest of you. F 27 3 days

 3  prescribed not ovulating each month It's my first cycle taking clomid I have mild spots of endometriosis the doctor warned me I might experience abdominal pain an if it gets too bad they will book me straight in for a scan. For 2 days my stomach has been in agony it's bearable as long as I have painkillers with me at all times I can't walk much because of the pain it hurts when I cough laugh or feel about. I'm hoping it eases off as I don't want to be phoning my consultant to book me in for a scan for no reason I don't want to be wasting her time. It's been 5 days since taking them on days 2-6 of my cycle so maybe it's because I'm currently on day 22 an the pain started day 21 maybe I've ovulated fingers crossed. F 25 1 months

 2  PCOS, Anovulation & Absent Periods Caused SEVERE mood swings that got way out of hand as I continued taking the drug. Clomid made me feel like I was not myself. I got into major fights with my husband over things I wouldn't have normally, broke things I wish I hadn't, inflicted pain on myself in a few different ways including cutting, and had feelings of depression and wanting to die. Minor side effects I experienced were hot flashes and night sweats. The symptoms usually started a day or two after finishing the 5th pill for each cycle and lasted for up to 2-3 weeks. To elaborate on the "SEVERE mood swings," I was so mentally messed up from this drug that I had boughts of chaotic rage towards my husband. The first month I had successfully embarrassed myself in front of all my neighbors by driving off in a fit of rage and ended up driving up onto my next door neighbors sidewalk like a crazy person; which is a good reason not to drive when angry to begin with, but I felt I had no control over any of my actions much like The Incredible Hulk. The second month I still got into huge fights with the hubby that ended in me causing self harm due to not being able to handle the strong emotions this drug was throwing my way; I had started head banging and had a feeling of wanting to just die. The third month again with the self harm, except this time I ended up causing self mutilation by cutting while feeling like I didn't want to be around anymore again, that's where I drew the line and my husband and I decided I should stop taking Clomid for good. It effected my quality of life while taking it and put an awful strain on my relationship. I can't wait until it's fully out of my system and I get to be me again. I know everyone's different, but with what has all happened to me in just 3 months, I wouldn't recommend ANYBODY to take Clomid. F 27 3 months

 2  To conceive First round was fine, but second month was not good. Took 4 out of 5 pills and I could barely walk by the afternoons on days 8 and 9 (cycle days). my thighs were so sore like I had run a marathon! I am still sore but much better on day 13. Apparently I am the 1% who gets myalgia. Lots of fluttering in pelvis, a bit tired but will not be taking Clomid again. I do ovulate, so not indicated, but it was decided that I could try it. Hoping for twins though! Fingers crossed:) F 41 4 days

 1  In addition to TRT Holy shit balls! Ok, my TRT doc put me on Clomid 25mg twice a week in conjunction with my TRT. I have never in my life ever lost control of my emotions, moody, ZERO libido, ED, heart racing, 9 lb weight loss over 3 weeks. If your TRTdoc attempts to put this with your TRT, tell him no!
