Clomid side effects

I know I cant be pregnant because my first round of clomid failed. My estradiol didn't go up high enough with the clomid so my dr. just referred me to the RE. But AF is due 3/27 and I have these horrible symptoms. I've read some bad stuff about clomid. But I took it cycle day 5-9 and its now CD 24 and my boobs are pretty sore(which they never are before AF) i have horrible mood swings yesterday and today, my back is killing me, im so bloated I feel like a fat pig, and i dont have the usual cramping i have the week before AF. Has anyone had these side effects with clomid?

Re: Clomid side effects

I just finished my Clomid Saturday and so far the symptoms I've experienced are extreme mood swings and problems going to the bathroom. I remember reading sore boobs can be a side effect. Mine were hurting me before AF last cycle and I was so curious because I had never experienced that before, but that was before the Clomid. I'm not sure if you'd still experience any of the side effects that late in the cycle. I feel like my moodiness is starting to go away alreadys o I assumed the Clomid was no longer affecting me.

I hope those are symptoms of a BFP for you!!!!

Re: Clomid side effects

The side effects of Clomid are usually while you're taking it, not a few weeks after

hopefully the symptoms you've described are just new AF symptoms. I found that after going off BC each month brings me different AF symptoms. Sometimes i have horrible cramping, sometimes nothing. Sometimes it lasts for 4 days, some for up to 7 etc.
