PCOS and clomid
Hi everyone
My husband and I have been married for over 2 years and have been trying for all that time! I was actually very lucky as i had been diagnosed with PCOS when in primary 7 so after only a year of trying i was referred to the hospital. I am now 26 and am feeling very disheartend to watch all of our friends who married after us have their babies or there abouts. I am happy for them but it feels so unjust when sme of them where not even wanting children/ or having honey moon babies! I was put on 50mg of clomid from march 2010 and we have been trying! my periods had regulated to roughly 33 days, however last month i was 2 weeks late, i did a test after 1 week and it was negative after 2 weeks it came. It was very light and i had no cramp, sore breasts, bloating (very unusual!). I have since been back to the docs and put up to 100mg for next try (no.5). Has anyone been successful that late on with clomid? For roughly the past 2 weks I have been feeling quite nauseus, things like my husbands aftershave are too strong, sore nipples, constipation, quite tearful, headaches. So far tonight i have cried at a film and reading some peoples stories on here lol! I know these are pregnancy symptoms but surely it is too early to have them as i am only on day 24 of my cycle? I don't 'feel' pregnant but i doubt i ever will as any time i have thought maybe the result has ben a negative! Please help!

You can vent anytime. I've had similar thoughts too. And even talked to my husband bout them. I ma fortunate enough to have one child and I'm greedy for at least one more..... I wish you the best of luck....you're still young. A friend of mine had tried for years and then one day out of the blue pregnant. Don't give up hope.....there's a baby out there for you......and if you need to vent again I'm here.
I know he never blames me or makes me feel bad but I can't help it. Its something i should be able to do!!! When we started dating I told him 'I don't think I can get preg' at that point was just a hunch wierdly something i had always though though never knew the ins and outs of PCOS. I am a primary teacher which shows how much i love kids however i have always sort of rebelled by saying I didn't want them in order to protect myself or I said i wood adopt wot is the point when there r so many unwanted children. I know in myself that was me trying to mask my true feelings - i do it ALL the time. Surely nothing can ever beat having a child grow in your own tummy and come from two people who r so in love. I really find it hard - i always thought i couldn't love him more than i did, but I have noticable stages were I have thought god I love u so much more than I ever thought possible - it seems to grow -am I mad!!!! Yet I think maybe it would be best to let him go as he could achieve this with someone else and I dont want him to resent me down the line! sorry for blabbing and i SO am not someone to talk like this (i am a wall builder lol) but I need to get this out. Think I just want someone to say 'dont be soooooooo stupid' lol'!
I know! I feel the same way everytime my period starts. He doesn't blame me or make feel bad but I still feel the guilt.......Taking higher dosage does up your chances to ovulate and release more eggs.....if you dont get prego on clomid alone, you may need an insulin resistant med to help control some of your other hormone issues.......I did clomid a couple of times and was not successful. the reasons are a story for another day........but both of my pregnancies just happened. I wasn't on meds or anything. my 2nd just a month ago ended up in miscarriage but at least I know I can get prego since I haven't been able to since we've been ttc for 5ish years.......Good luck! Good luck! Good luck!
I was not monitered on clomid but as if by fluke the month before i started i ovulated but doc said to still take as wood only up chances. I wanna be so bad but scared as dont wanna let my hubby down!!!
Question.....did you ovulate when you were on 50mg? You have a better chance of getting pg at 100mg even if you ovulated at 50mg . But some side effects of clomid are pregnancy symptoms. Cross your fingers! Good luck.
Don't wanna get your hopes up but you could be pg. I ended up in ER cuz of a UTI and they ran a pg test just in case and it came back positive and I was only on CD19.
