clomid club

[ebony2010]

Hi Everyone!
I have been on Clomid for one cycle, starting my second cycle here in a few days. I have had the worst AF's that I have ever had in my life while on this medication. The cramping is so bad I havent been out of bed for three days. I feel like my back is in a vice. Has anyone else had these issues? I take Clomid days 5-9 for non ovulation and issues conceiving. My husband and I have been ttc for over a year. Hoping it works, and can anyone tell me what days to do the deed? Thanks A

My AF after my first cycle of clomid was awful. I had 7 days of really heavy bleeding that just didn't seem to ever stop. I have to say that its now back to normal so must have been clomid shocking the system at first.

As for BDing. They say you will ov 5-10 days after your last tablet so hope that helps. Xxx

Thank you!!!! I bought one of those ovulation kits, where you pee on the stick? but I havent figured it out yet. All I know is how to turn it on and reset it to day one. Thanks for your answer Ebony 2010! I appreciate it!!!-A

Good afternoon ladies

So has now (CD 28) started making her appearance. I wasnt on any clomid this month due to being on antibiotics.

I am starting to feel so dispondent coz i took my last depo shot in January 2010. Was on it for almost 4 years, neva had any period at all. I started getting my period in September 2010 and was about 4 days late in October, thought i was preggies but eventually got period. I hav exactly 28 day cycles. Earlier this year my ob&gynae prescibed me on 3 rounds of clomid but still did not get a . I then went 2 months natural but still In September 2011 my Gynae did some blood test and everything came back normal. i took my fourth round of clomid but got my period and it was very very light. I then skipped a month due to being on antibiotics.

I hav a prescription for 100mg clomid start drinking on CD5-9 bt i dont know if it i shud still drink it, coz i dont think its working for me. I am really not sure whether the depo shot is out of my system yet.

I am getting so depressed and dispondent. i jst feel like crying coz i was thinking and hoping just mayb this month i would get a naturally. It seems every1 around me is getting preggies without thinking or evening planning. Is there somebody out there in the same boat with me or is also feeling the way i do?

I'm on CD15 after my M/C and waiting for my AF to arrive so I can start my 2nd round of clomid 50mg CD2-6. I wasn't sure if I was going to try again at 1st but I think would of lived to regret it. The thing is I am absolutely petrified. I am scared that I have had my chance and that I won't get another positive or that if I do I'll lose it. I just needed to say it out loud, I'm really really scared. I didn't feel like this on the 1st round because I didn't have any expectations, I'd told myself that it wouldn't work so that I didn't build my hopes up. I just needed to get it off my chest. I try talking to my OH but he always says the wrong things, he doesn't mean to, he's just trying to be strong for me. I guess I just needed to vent and I thought people on here would understand. I'm going to try my hardest to start being positive from now on cause I'm guessing all the stress and worrying isn't going to help TTC.

Good luck to everybody else on here.

Hi Ladies.

Well I'm finally on CD1 after a 6 week wait, starting my 2nd round of clomid tomorrow, 50mg CD2-6. I'm so nervous this go, I didn't get a wink of sleep last night, I quoted my last post on this thread so you'll know why I'm so scared.

I trying to stay positive though, if clomid worked the 1st go there is no reason why it won't again...right?! =/
I got monitered on my 1st round by internal ultrasounds and CD21 bloods but they aren't doing that this time so I'm going to chart my bbt and use opks so I know that I definitely do OV. I'm also hoping that the side effects won't be as bad second time around, the 1st cycle was hard. Well I'm probably going to be posting here more often now for support and to hear how other people are getting on so I look forward to getting to know all you lovely ladies a little better xx

Wow sorry you going through that.. I took mine from day 2-6 and I did receive a lot of cramping during ovulation period and lower back pains. I hope you get your soon. Good luck this cycle

try use a cup and twinkly in it then dip you opk in the pee. I find it works better that way for me and less mess

Yay for such a high number!!!!!

 

[cj72]

Nice numbers Tryinfor1

davies- looks like we are off this month, but every 3 months we'll be cycle buddies. Glad you got to shop in Florida! Love that place! Weather here is getting colder and my OH is thinking the more he gets to bd, the better our chances...I'm not telling him when it is, but I sure am enjoying practicing! LOL! Looks like I might be out this month as I saw some evidence of AF on her way today at lunchtime. Nothing since, but seems she's gearing up for a broom ride. Grrr...

 

[Euronova]

tryingfor1 - i did my progesterone at 7dpo and it was 88, my gynea said she knew then I was pregnant as it was such a high number.
All crossed for you! Sounds really promising!!

 

[TryinFor1]

Thanks ladies!!

I wonder what it would be if I got it drawn today, 7dpo.

I dont know/cant find any information on how much it rises afterwards. My DR had no clue I was even 3dpo though. They were like "Dr. Gordon is so pleased!! He said it is an excellent number!!" She always ends with "So when you get a positive pregnancy test, give us a call!!!!......................or if you, you know.. start a new cycle." when she tells me my progesterone levels. Lol. I like how she says the first sentence first and then is like or you know, that.

 

[Euronova]

Luteal range is 5.3 to 86 at 21 days.
It varies from women to women but usually there is even more of a rise if you are preggers, they can't say for sure but a high number is always a positive indication
