Clomid girlies thread

[snowbee]

Super positive opk today and quite a bit of ovary pain Dtd last night and at lunchtime today and will hopefully squeeze in tomorrow too, so should be covered. Now fingers crossed and wait and see

How is everyone else doing?

It was my second cycle of clomid. First cycle my level was 1.8 no ovulation, second was 75. It must have built up in my system cos boy did it work that month. I thought from the beginning it would be twins if I conceived as I think the second month I had symptoms of hyper stimulation.......obviously I was right about that. Good luck, I've got my fingers crossed for you x

Good luck Snowbee, how exciting xx

I'm on my 4th cycle of clomid now, unfortunately started very heavy af on cycle day 29. Still on 100mg as I deffo ovulated last time. Not being scanned this time so hopefully the timing will be right On cd3. Getting my tubes checked in Feb. x

 

[snowbee]

Hi littlekoala, good luck for this cycle. How many at 100mg have you done?

I'm now 4dpo, no signs or symptoms of anything. I had my tubes checked last summer (had to have it done before I was allowed the clomid) and they were fine (got to have something in my favour right lol).

 

[snowbee]

I'm 7dpo now and today have had strange pulling sensations to one side. Other than that no symptoms of anything.

Did any of you have any side effects with clomid?

 

[Clare80]

I had hot sweats with clomid, particularly at night.

The 3 months I was on it and didn't get a BFP I had loads of "pregnancy" symptoms. However, the 4th month, which did work, I had far less. I actually commented to my husband that I felt a lot different that cycle. I think symptoms are more noticeable on clomid as progesterone levels tend to be very high, when ladies with pcos are used to the low levels.

Fingers crossed for you!

I finished my 100mg clomid last week, (have done 2 rounds of 50 and 2 rounds of 100 so far) approaching fertile week now (cd12). I have to take a break next month as not allowed to be on meds or try as I have a tubal check. After that they'll either put me on 150mg or discuss what's happening next.
Fingers crossed I won't need it! xx

 

[snowbee]

I'm now 12 dpo. I did test today and bfn. The earliest I've had a bfp before is 13 dpo, so I am still hopeful but still have no symptoms so am feeling out.

I got my blood results, they were only 35 so not exactly high but high enough for the clinic to be pleased I ovd. I'm concerned my progesterone doesn't raise high enough to support a pregnancy and I think this is the reason for my previous losses. If I get another bfp I'll be straight down to my GP and ask to have it checked. The clinic have pretty much said I'm to be left to my own devices now, take the next 5 cycles of clomid at 100 and then go back if no joy.

Fingers crossed for you littlekoala!

Good luck girls.
I was on progesterone from ovulation until 13 weeks Snowbee xx

 

[snowbee]

13dpo and a very clear negative on a frer. Poopers, I guess that is me out for this month will await af tomorrow then start again.

 

[snowbee]

Cycle 2 of 100 clomid now. I think I'm 1dpo. What cycle day did you all ov on when on clomid and what cds did you take it? I'm on days 2-6 and not oving until day 17+

 

[phonixgirl]

I found some leftover clomid and am taking a quarter of a tablet a day... So I'm a clomid girl this month

 

[snowbee]

Quarter of a tablet, it that about 12.5 then? I'm not entirely sure I've ovd on 100, I'm still disappointed that my last level was only 35, I know 30 is the cut off and it is better than that but seems pretty low compared to others who have had successful pregnancies.

 

[phonixgirl]

Yeah, 12.5mg. I have plenty of tablets but I over-responded to 25mg so thought I'd try 12.5mg! X

 

[Clare80]

I ov'd about day 15. Cycles were 28-30 days on clomid and have a 14 day luteal phase.

 

[phonixgirl]

I'm getting hot flushes, especially at night, so I think they're doing something! X

 

[snowbee]

That is the only symptom/side effect I have had, being a bit warm at night for the days I took it. Not had any of the others on the massive list they sent with the pills lol.

 

[phonixgirl]

I had them before and then cramps in the 2WW. Nothing else either for me! X

 

[phonixgirl]

Last day of my 12.5mg today lol. Hopefully it's given my eggs a bit of a boost though.
