Thread: ~CLOMID SIDE EFFECTS~ Add yours here!!

Oh man, here's a new one for me...

Yesterday and today my ovaries hurt! OOOF!

I hope O happens sooner rather than later. Last month I O'd on CD15 and now I'm only on 11. My DH and I are going out of town this weekend. I hope that this doesn't get too much worse. Altho if I O on our weekend away, we'll be getting a lot of BD'g in so that's good!

This is my second month on clomid. I had a miscarriage in October and have pretty much had spotting ever since. My Dr said I was not ovlating and put me on clomid. 50MG the first month bleeding stopped and 21 days later, I started bleeding again and he started me on 100MG this month. According to my BT chart, I am still not ovulating. How long can you take clomid and will it eventually make me ovulate? I am really stressed because this was my first pregnancy and I always heard it was really easy to get pregnant the second time around after a MC. This may sound really silly, but can you feel ovulation??? I have been having some slight discomfort on my left side and was wondering if that could be it???

When on Clomid, you will very likely feel O. I never really noticed much in the way of O pains without it but with it, my ovaries really told me what was up. It started slight and got more obvious for 5 days this time. On round 1 it was more of a very heavy bloating on O day only. I confirmed it was O day because I used OPKs too.

Here's a website with more info on Clomid...

Hope that helps!

This is my first month on Clomid 50mg CD 3-7.

I had some moodiness on the last 2 days that I took the pills and I cried over something so stupid that I don't remember what it was. Dh hugged me while I cried and I felt better.

***TMI ALERT***
Today, 10 DPO and CD 23, I've had sore nipples for about 3 days now. NOT sore breasts, but sore nipples. And I think my nipples are about twice the size they usually are and are staying erect (0)(0) LOL....you know like when it's cold. Is this wierd or what?

I've been having that nipple problem too! They stay hard almost all the time and they're so stiff they hurt!! I don't know if its thanks to the Clomid or what but I know how you feel!!

I've had moodiness and headaches all three months on clomid. This monthy, I had wicked cramps right around O time. And my bb's are sore - mostly my nipples too. Weird. I was hoping it was a preggo sign, but maybe its just the clomid?

Hey guys! Just started Clomid last Thursday... hoping to O soon! It's been 98 days since I've had AF. The only thing I've noticed are some random mood swings, funny though: Yesterday DH & I were driving around and he kept giving me the wrong directions. At one point he said, "Babe, you missed the turn" and I screamed, I mean SCREAMED, "WELL I DID NOT F-ING SEE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" That is waaaaaay out of character for me, I'm usually pretty even-tempered. I just sat there for a second in the car wondering what just happened and almost wanted to laugh! He just said, "OMG I hope this Clomid stuff works!"

LOL. That is too funny! Poor you and DH and I hope it works for ya too!

Hey, ladies!! I'm new to this board. I've just been prescribed Clomid to start next cycle, and I have to admit that I'm just a little bit nervous. My doc diagnosed me with 'unexplained infertility' after DH and I have had as many tests as we can do up to this point. So, she's starting me on 50 mg next cycle. It's interesting reading all of the different side effects that you've all had. The one that I'm mainly worried about is the mood swings as I have such a hard time with PMS. Everything else I'll put up with for the sake of TTC. Hope to chat with you ladies some more, and babydust to all!!

Hey there!!
Welcome to the boards, I hope your stay here is short and sweet!! Clomid really wasn't that bad for me. A few annoying little things you have to go through, but all in all, not bad at all I'm interested to see how I am going to do on 150mgs next cycle!!! EEKS!!!!
Good luck!
