Hi all, can i join? this month was my first month taking clomid 50mg days 3-7. i also ovulate on my own so the doc told me to take it to strengthen my ovulation. my cycles range from 31-42 days and have been since i got off bcp 2 years ago. i had a m/c last summer and we have been trying since with no luck. i am praying that we are all the lucky ones that get their BFP on their first round of clomid! That would be amazing!!!

Fingers crossed for all of us!!!

Hey Roe yes I had the hsg back in december and everything was all clear. My husband also had a SA and he is a little on the lower side but the Doc said it is not too bad. What CD is everyone one

Hopeful- what were your side effects on clomid and when did you feel the effects?

I got pregnant naturally and it took us 3 months. After the mc we waited two cycles before trying again. I kept asking my gyno if there was anything for me to do and the doc kept saying "these things happen, it's not you or dh. The good news is that we know you are able to get pregnant."

7 months later I have not fallen pregnant again! so at my annual last month I insisted on tests and that's when he did the progesterone test and it came back at 5.1. I would have never guessed I had ov issues because I always get the smiley on my digi opk so this month was my first month on clomid and I think I am about 7dpo. Trying to be positive but I am just so drained

When I took it the first month at 50 mg I didnt really have any side effects. When I took it at 100mg the second month I had headaches, hotflashes and cold sweats, and like blurred vision and would be very emotional. Now if I dont get pregnant this time I go up to 150mg and hoping the side effects wont be any worse.

Hope - I totally understand what you are going through. My two conceptions were both natural as well and they happened so easily. I thought "at least I know I can get pregnant". Now apparantely I can't anymore. We'll see what happens. Does your low progesterone equate to having an short luteal phase? I know that clomid can definitely lengthen that phase and I assume it does that by boosting progesterone levels.

Hopeful - that sounds terrible - especially the blurred vision. That would make me very anxious. Did you tell your doctor about that? The only side effects I think I've had from the 100 mg is that while I was taking the pills - 3 days into it I was very tired. I also think I have experienced some mood swings.

All: Had my IUI this morning! It took two nurses and then a doctor to get the catheter in! I guess a full bladder would have helped but I didn't know that. Once they got it in it was over so quickly.

i think my leuatal phase is 15 or 16 days. So i am not sure if that is considered short? i think under 10 days is considered short...i dont know i could be totally off, lol. Glad to hear your IUI was done quick. i am not really sure what that is or how it works???
