Hi Ladies,
I've had a bit of a break from here for a few months whilst I dealt with other issues...namely jobs! However, I now have a new job sorted for September at a school only 4 miles up the road and I think I'll be really happy there. Anyways, I didn't see any point in wasting Clomid whilst I had all that major worry and stress going on. So, here's my Clomid journey so far...
Why am I on Clomid? - I was diagnosed with PCOS about 10 years ago and have been trying for baby number 2 for a year now but my periods have gone AWOL again...I'm currently on CD 117!
How much am I on? - Started on 100mg for 2 cycles and I have started 150mg today
When do you take it? - CD2 til CD6 (though I am currently on CD117!)
Any side effects? - a bit emotional the first cycle, nothing the second but let's see what 150mg does to me!
Did it help OV? - not one bit...21 day blood tests showed progesterone level <1
If you had long cycles, did it help reduce them? - I think it brought on a period after my first round of it from 4 months down to 29 days! But then hardly anything since
Was Clomid a success for you? - Not yet but holding out hope as my GP has told me to stop wasting time and go for IVF - gulp! I like him though as he is very straight with me and I already have one child.
Good luck to all. I'm so happy this thread was started as it's interesting to hear other stories.
