3 | Unexplained Infertility | Some mild hot flashes, biggest side effect was unseen- my uterine lining was thinned to the point where pregnancy would have been impossible | Please make sure your doctor is monitoring you via ultrasound. I was pulled off Clomid immediately due to the thinned lining- had I continued to take it there is a possibility that it could have made me completely unable to have children. I certainly wasn't going to get pregnant on it, but was fortunate that I was at a doctor (reproductive endocrinologist- which I also suggest) who kept a close eye on me. I also ended up with cysts after that cycle, which were caught because of my doctor doing ultrasounds to keep track of things. | F | 30 | 5 days 100 mg 1X day | 8/31/2011 | 5 | PCOS | I have two boys that I conceived after using clomid. Only took one month for each but I started taking it 4 days ago and I am noticing forgetfulness really bad. I forgot I turned the bath on then forgot to let the dogs in. I feel like I am loosing my mind lol but I really think its the medicine. Totally worth taking but crazy what its doing to my mind. | F | 28 | 5 days 50 MG 1X day | 8/26/2011 | 5 | lack of ovulation | I conceived a daughter after three rounds 3.5yrs ago, I don't remember any issues. We are trying for another and so far, the first round I am experiencing fatigue and horrible headaches.....I hope they subside soon and I hope that the earlier success is repeated. | F | 39 | 5 days 50mg 1X day | 8/23/2011 | 3 | Need mature follicles | Mild Headaches, mild moodiness, extreme fatigue. | So far so good! Not pregnant yet but my first cycle | F | 28 | 5 days 50 Mg 1X day | 8/21/2011 | 4 | No period no ovulation | I had a warm sensation going on from time to time. I also had sinus congestion starting on day 7 of the medication. Also my period lasted a little longer than usual. | F | 36 | 10 days 100 1X day | 8/4/2011 | 1 | TTC, unknown infertility | I took 50mg the first month and it worked great! I took 50mg the 2nd month and nothing. 100 mg the 3rd month and nothing with symptoms like hot flashes, weight gain, lack of sleep, no periods, constant sweating, forgetfulness. I'm due to start 150mg in 2 days and we'll see if it works. Symptoms still getting worse and if this doesn' work for month 3 in a row, then I'm stopping it. | I don't know how it worked the 1st month and absolutely nothing the next 2?! In fact, after month 1, my progesterone levels just keep dropping! Hopefully this month will work! I want a baby SO bad! | F | 22 | 5 days 150mg 1X day | 6/16/2011 | 5 | infertility | I have only had a little bloating. No other side effects. Hopefully I will get a BFP at the end of the month. | F | 34 | 3 days 100mg 1X day | 6/6/2011 | 2 | PCOS/ INFERTILITY | I think in a way it is working because i have been getting mood swing and tonight i cant sleep at all! but mostly i just want to be with my fiance all the time, i dont know if this is good or bad but today is my 5th day so we are crossing fingers! so we'll see in a few weeks what happens... i cant wait! | F | 21 | 5 days 50mg 1X day | 5/22/2011 | 2 | PCOS | I had horrible side effects durning my 1st round of 100 mg. Headaches, mood swings, blurred vision, mood swings and very bad hot flashes. This is my 2nd and I am on CD 16 and have not experienced any SE. | I started with 2 rounds of clomid 50 mg and did not ovulate. I was bumped to 100 mg and I am currently on my 2nd round. I have failed to ovulate on all previous rounds but remain hopeful for this cycle. I heard you ovulate late on clomid so I am not surprised that I have not gotten my +OPK yet this cycle. | F | 31 | 5 days 100 mg 1X day | 5/9/2011 | 4 | Unknown Infertility | Extremely tired, nauseous, headaches, diarrhea, and pain during ovulation - good thing is my cramps are not as bad when I do get my period and period only lasts 2-3 days but very heavy. | Hopeful we get pregnant this month, fingers crossed for IUI next week. | F | 29 | 5 days 100 MG 1X day | 5/4/2011 | 3 | for mature follicles | Headaches, hot flushes, night sweats, weight gain, bloating | The side affects are fine, i can cope so im sure anyone else can! TTC for 5 yrs, now on 2nd round of clomid..first month felt ovulation, very intense pain and bloating,hurt to walk and very sore breasts after ov. It will be worth it in the end ;-), second month didnt feel ov, no symptoms what so ever,maybe i didnt ov? Good luck all | F | 24 | 50 1X day | 4/28/2011 | 5 | PCOS/TTC | I had no side effects while taking the pill..however 5 days after the last pill i had 1 excrutiating headache, dizziness, nausea, loss of appetite. Maybe im pregnant maybe its late side effect. Im hoping pregnancy though. | F | 23 | 5 days 50mg 1X day | 4/16/2011 | 4 | PCOS | Currently on day 11 after taking the first pill. I was absolutly fine whilst taking the tablets then on the 5th evening i got this horrendous headache that hasn't gone away since. Its so bad i've had to beg my 2 1/2 year old to take a nap with me during the day because i can't look at anymore light or listen to anymore noice. I had terrible mood swings but that was only for day 5 & 6. | I was told by my consultant that the reason for my PCOS (as they don't think i had it with my 1st child as he was conceived whilst on the pill) was my servere weight loss, has anyone else been told this as i've tried searching for it and there is nothing anywhere. Also are these headaches normal? I'm a little worried because ther're so bad and have lasted ages? | F | 25 | 5 days 50mg 1X day | 4/15/2011 | 4 | PCOS | Update: Hot Flashes, Evening felt Nausea and dizzy and headaches, not able to sleep well | Update: I today received a positive LH Surge on my ovulation tests!! Yaay!!!! I hope to have a baby soon! I am so happy! I havent ovulated for I dont know how long until today! I am hopeing that we will have great news in a few weeks! | F | 27 | 5 days 100mg 2X day | 4/14/2011 Patient History | 4 | Infertility | I am extremely tired, the first month I took it in the morning and made me extremely nauseous, this is the second month I am taking it at night and has helped with the nausea. I have also gained weight, which is about 10 lbs over the past 2 months, a lot of water weight I can tell, along with bloating. Some moodiness and headaches. | Because of stage 4 endometriosis and PCOS, and TTC for over 7 months now on my own my OB started us on Clomid, no baby the first month just finished up with last dose this month so really excited and praying to conceive this month. Really hoping to get these extra pounds off. 10 lbs might not be a big deal to most, but I had weight loss surgery 6 years ago and lost 200lbs and I am at a steady weight of 140-145lbs so 10lbs in 2 months is a lot. But I guess I have to remember it is the hormones :) I am still eating and exercising the way I should, so if others are gaining weight fast it is probably the Clomid. Chin up from what I read it should come off after treatment, in the first few months of pregnancy most lose a few pounds :) Good luck everyone. | F | 31 | 2 months 50 mg 1X day | 3/30/2011 | 3 | PCOS/TTC | I had one of the worst migraines I've ever had. The day I finished my last dose I woke up with a headache and vomited all day. The H/A tapered off but still lasted 3 days. | My doctor is amazing. He does things in 3's. If it doesn't work after the third time, change the method. Once we find the right dose of Clomid we will try that for 3 months then move on. Hopefully this next month's dose will work. | F | 26 | 2 months 50 mg 1X day | 3/25/2011 | 2 | infertility | No side effects | Didn't work. Tried this medication 6 different times and never got pregnant. Tried 2 of those times with Metforman. The doctor will only let me try it one more time before she can't anymore. I feel it isn't worth it. I have heard wonderful stories about this drug but didn't do a thing for me and still have not gotten pregnant. | F | 29 | 1X day | 3/5/2011 | 5 | To conceive | Sore breasts, moodiness, cramping and tired. | After trying for 4 1/2 years we conceived with clomid on the second month of 50mg taken one a day on days 3-7. This pregnancy ended with a miscarriage in the 8th week of pregnancy. Started taking clomid right away and conceived the next month and now have a healthy 1 year old. We are now trying to conceive again and are just playing the waiting game. Have taken my same dosage of clomid and have all the same side effects. | F | 28 | 5 days 50 mg 1X day | 2/25/2011 | 3 | to regulate cycle | bloating, extreme moodiness, headaches, backaches, and serious weight gain. | I got pregnant on Clomid 3 years ago the first time I took it. I have been on it now for the 3rd straight month and no luck. Just lots of weight gain and bloating that is almost unbearable. I have had trouble conceiving my whole life with no real explanation. My cycles last on average from 30 to 33 days and I ovaluate very irregularly. In the 10 years we have been trying I got pregnant once on my own and had a miscarriage. My doctor diagnosed me with endometriosis, but once I had the surgery to clean up the tissue he never seems to mention it being a problem now. So we are patiently trying. | F | 41 | 3 months 100 1X day | 2/22/2011 | 3 | Not Ovulating | My Worst Headache Ever (it’s been 3 days that this pain doesn’t go away), Very bad Back Pain (the pains is so bad that it’s been difficult to walk), Tiredness (I feel like I am recovering from a cold), Abdominal Pain (ovaries area), Insomnia (I’ve been sleeping 1/3 less than usual), Breast Tenderness, and Weight Gain ( I gained 5 pounds in 4 days). | I hope it works soon. The side effects are not fun. | M | 30 | 5 days 50 MG 1X day | 2/9/2011 |
