Hi. I used 50 mg days 5-9 and was successful. I gave birth to a healthy baby girl yesterday. I wish you lots of luck and hope this cycle works for you :)
Thank you! Did you have any side effects from the Clomid?
Congratulations on the birth of your daughter!! Best wishes for a speedy recovery. =)
i m trying clomid 50, it is my first cycle and hope it work
I finished my first round of clomid 50mg a few weeks ago. Just a few more days to find out if it worked this cycle. I will try and keep you posted. I too have pcos and have been ttc for some time now. The side effects I had from clomid were some hot flashes (but not too bad - I took it at night and slept through most of them), very odd and vivid dreams, and after I finished the clomid I ended up with what I thought was a yeast infection. Dr. said not to treat it as it was a side effect (itching and burning down there). After a few days of no treatment, it has mostly cleared up. Just got back cd 21 test results - progesterone at 17.6 which is acceptable and good (it only indicated I ovulated, progesterone does not suggest pregnancy). Well, good luck with your first cycle...try to stay paitent (yeah right)!
Thank you. I didn't have any side effects so I initially thought it had failed. I was very wrong. Good luck and baby dust to all!
Hey there! I can't tell you yet if Clomid 1st round is a success for me, but I can tell you that I'm on my 1st round and just got my positive OPK yesterday, so we're BDing like crazy and hoping it works out! I didn't get the hot flashes like most girls get, I didn't really have any odd side effects while taking Clomid. Recently though, I've had achy legs and I'm feeling stuff going on in my tummy but I am not familiar enough to know what I'm feeling. Past few days I've had to come home from work and take a nap because I've been so tired, but that could be due to a number of things!!
I was diagnosed with PCOS and since I stopped taking birth control 4 years ago I had never started a period on my own. Took provera for 10 days which induced a period and took clomid 50mg on CDs 5-9. Feel free to add me as a friend and ask any questions you might have! I'll be happy to lend you what knowledge I do have (even if it's not much! =])
Thanks for sharing all of your experiences! I had some BAD headaches from the Clomid- that was about it for side effects.
I am beginning to think that my OPK is full of BS- as I have had three +'s (on non-consecutive days!) and no temperature shift as of yet. Anyone else having bad luck with their OPK?
I was diagnosed with PCOS at 14 the month after my first period. I had a fist-sized cyst removed and took BCP's for years. However, I did not have any trouble getting pregnant with my 13 year-old son. I never had to take any meds to induce a period; I just had cycles lasting 46 days.
amandamae- Your progesterone level was great! At least you know that you ovulated!! =) Good thoughts going your way!!
wannababybump- Good luck this month!!
roubika- good luck to you too!!!!
msteri- How is your little girl doing? :)
BTW- what cycle day is everyone on? Today is day 18 for me
Good luck to everyone!!
Hey there,
My OPKs have been positive for 4 days... so I guess you could say that I've had some weird luck with them... this is the first time I've used them so I don't know if it's normal for me, but I don't know what to make of it. Also, my temps are sporadic and still low. .
Thanks for the luck, same to you! =] I'm on CD 22.
I am on my 1st cycle of clomid at 100mg days 5-9. I am on CD 22 and 4 dpo now. I had mild side effects at first (some bad headaches) and then when I got my +opk I had MAJOR pains for 2days which went away just as fast as they came thank goodness. Wish you lots of luck and baby dust. Keep us all posted!
Wannababybump- This is my second month using OPK's. I bought the Wal-Mart bargain brand and I think I got what I paid for!! I wonder if I test it that my Diet Pepsi may be ovulation too!
I have been so crampy and bloated today- I hope this means that I may O soon. My temp was elevated by 0.7 degrees this morning- but I also got a + OPK test today. =) We shall see!!
Tryingforbaby2- Did you have major abdominal pains when you got your + OPK or a headache?
=)
Good Luck everyone!!!!
I had MAJOR cramping during the time of +opk. I had pain in my back, stomach and hips and I couldn't sleep at all the first night. I was really worried that I had a cyst or something and felt like I was going to go nuts. The pain did ease up about 24 hours later and had no pain at all on day 3. I hope that helps you.
Hi!! Sorry it took me awhile to write back!
Tryingforbaby2- Thanks for the advice! I was much better the next day- just a few twinges in my ovaries for two days afterwards... I had my CD 21 progesterone test last Thursday and it was 29- so at least I know that I did O... How are you doing?
Good luck to everyone!!!!
