sorry Lauren! I had high hopes for you this month. I'm just a few days behind you, but I'm not optimistic. I'm not 100% sure I even ovulated on the clomid...

for those with long/irregular cycles who took clomid - did your cycle length regulate from the clomid?

I'm on CD 39 and still going - I was expecting a "normal" length cycle...

That's what I thought too, but then I read a couple sites that said it the symptoms can stay with you.

Doesn't matter for me this month anyway, TBAF showed up this afternoon.

I'm so upset. I really thought this was it.

Just ordered my Clomid refill. Here's to being a 2nd round success story!!

Anyone taking Letrozole (femera) instead of clomid?

Bumping...

Great thread. Today is day 1 on Clomid for me (CD3). I'm so nervous about side effects bc I'm so sensitive to meds, but I'm only on 50mg, so I should be ok. If I do not have luck with this month's IUI, I will be bumped to 100mg next month depending on how my body reacts. How's everyone else doing? What dosage is everyone taking?

I was just told yesterday that next cycle that starts 11/20 I should start on Clomid (50 mg) on CD 3-7. The dr is keeping me on this for 3 months then on to IUI (hopeing not to go that route).

I was on 50 mg. I did 3 cycles at that and got pregnant on this last cycle, but sadly lost it.

I go back to the doctor on Monday and he will decide about next round. (We are most likely staying on 50 mg and moving to IUI.)

I found taking the Clomid at night helped with the side effects. Though the hot flashes hit all day and night until I ovulated.

I took them days 4-8.

Good luck to all the Clomid ladies!!

If it's any help, I have done 2 months of 100 mg of Clomid and I haven't had too many side effects. Just a very unpleasant, weird taste in my mouth and weird back pain. Nothing horrible. Hopefully, all of you won't have any side effects or very little. This will be month 3.

Did anyone get cramps? I don't know if it's related or not, but I have these twangs and pains in my ovary region, and I'm only on CD4, Day 2 of Clomid. Related?

It's day 2 of my 1st cycle.

Bumping for Kara!!

Wow -- thanks Lauren!! I am learning a lot from this thread, thanks ladies. My Dr. is putting me on clomid and estrogen my next cycle if I don't get a BFP this time around (I am on CD 7 now). He says we will do that for 3 months, and then do IVF if we have to. I don't know why we didn't discuss IUI but I suppose we will talk about it before we go ahead with anything else.

I am 39, and 40 is right around the corner. Funny thing is my Dr. didn't want to do any tests, he wanted to give it more time. I figured, well let's find out NOW if there are any issues and if there aren't then yay. But there are.... FSH is 12.7 so I am joining you here!

Bumping.

How many mature follies did everyone get on Clomid? Also, did anyone else experience extremely heavy and painful periods? I did. I also experienced a lot of breat tenderness and MOODINESS to put it lightly. I am only on 50mg.
