Hey Ladies! I am new to this whole forum thing so Im just going to jump right in. I have PCOS and am on my second cycle of Clomid. I took it a couple of years ago and the 50mg did make me ovulate but always ended in a BFN. My husband and I have been trying things naturally for the past couple of years but now Im pretty much at wits end. I took the 50mg again last month...no ovulation. Absolutely crushed because I was so sure the side effects of the meds were preg symptoms. Ahh, the wishful thinker that I am Now on CD 6 and taking 100mg Clomid from CD 4-6. Hopefully I will at least ovulate this time, but Im so doubtful right now. Just call me Negative Nancy for now

Thanks Caz, yeah that is what I was thinking, this afternoon's test was darker than yesterdays so hopefully in a day or two It till be positive for sure!!

taking 100mg Clomid from CD 4-6.

hi, good luck with the 100mg, hope this does it for ya. are you taking it cd 4-8? most ppl usually take it for 5 days. if this cycle doesnt work out then might be an idea to look into taking it cd2-6 which is what a lot of ppl who dont ovulate do. check with your dr tho, im sure they did it different for a reason

Good luck and welcome to the thread. Normally you have to take the clomid for for a total of 5 days in a row at the beginning of your cycle. The amount you are doing seems shorter than usual? Here is a copy and paste from an online article I found about the dosage of clomid...

"Clomiphene is usually taken as one or more pills each day for five days at the
beginning of each menstrual cycle. It is usually started on cycle day 3, 4, or 5 (cycle day 1 is the first
day of menstrual flow) according to your normal cycle length and the program you are on."

Im not sure why my Dr put me on this dosage schedule, but Ive never taken this dosage before so Im just going by her direction. I was suppose to start on CD 3 but forgot so Im a day late with it, but Im suppose to be taking 2 pills a day for 3 days. I thought it was weird myself, but the 1 a day for 5 days did nothing for me. Tonight is my last dosage for this cycle so I guess we will see. She wants to move to injections next cycle if I still dont ovulate this time. Im just so frustrated with everything that Im getting a little overwhelmed by it.

so I started spotting last night... it's super light, pretty much only there when I wipe or check CM/CP. I have light periods anyway - usually a day of spotting, a day or two of light bleeding, and then spotting for a few days. Could it be the Clomid causing my period to be so light that it's just spotting? I plan on calling my OB in the morning but just wanted some input while I drive myself crazy

 

[cj72]

The TWW sucks!!! 4 dpo on the first round of 50 mg. Interested to see how this turns out!

 

[sadie]

Pineapple, mine lightened up too and was shortened by 2 days as well, in addition to coming early by 2 days.

I wonder if there is a coincidence of short periods/difficulty to conceive. I amwondering if the light period stands for light lining which then causes problems with implantation. Dont know. Just thinking aloud here.

Morning ladies....

I also experienced lighter period both times while on clomid and the second time my AF was even a few days later than normal. This month decided not to use any tabs, so will c hw my AF will be. Hopefully my AF does not come and i am . I am due to get AF this sunday. Will keep you ladies informed about how my AF's flow was. If i get my AF i will start with clomid on d2-6.
Please keep fingers crossed the my AF stay away

baby dust for all the ladies on the clomid train

 

[SummerLily]

Hi ladies

my cycles are definalty lighter on clomid ! this is only my second cycle but on the first cycle it was only 4 days long and really in comparison to it being 7 days long and rather heavy.

But i think the clomid is makeing me feel dreadfull! have booked an appointment to go and see the GP today, this is my second cycle of taking it days 2-6 and today i cd13 but for the last 4 days i havent even been able to function. the headaches are horrific - nausea light headed , dizzy spells. didnt have this the last time so am hoping that maybe im just a bit ill lol. but i will be asking today to be tracked ! slightly concerned that my ovary is killling !!

[Anxiously]

Hello ladies, how's everyone today? I'm battling with the itch of reaching out for those ICs! Had to mentally slap my hands away from the cupboard all the time.

I'm determined (as of now at least) to wait it out for the full 3 weeks, so that's next Sun. FX'd!

Welcome to the new batch of clomiders by the way!
