Winston- good luck. Such high figures! Did you ov per clomid? What cycle of it are you on now? Hope this is your bfp!

Trying hard- thanks for the info, I think I might try b6 complex too seeing as I spot earlier on clomid.

Good Luck Winston!!! Everything crossed here. xx

clomid stimulates both side, which is why there is more risk of twins, so i guess you can still ovulate from the "good" side

Wow really? I thought you only ov on one side per cycle? That makes me feel better! Thank you!

When did you get af pains during your tww?

I got them yesterday, along with a backache, at 8dpo. I am PRAYING it was implantation! I have never felt like that before!

I don't get O pains- which might make sense because my doc doesn't like my temps/bbt charts- she says I'm not "spikey" enough. I do get some major AF cramps- go figure. We'll see how I do when I start clomid...per Fertility Friend I should get AF 12/27. No TTC this cycle because of my surgery

Hi ladies! Back from vacation. Caught a cold on the plane ride home, so BD-ing is not very fun right now, lol. Started my 2nd Clomid cycle just before leaving and got a little nervous at the resort - really feeling twinges and cramps! Went away after my last pill, but started again now (I'm CD15 today). Hopefully it means it's working!

I was excited to use the OV sticks I bought online this month, but they haven't arrived yet I really hope this is the month for me, AF last month was BRUTAL! So so painful

Hi all,

I feel pregnant with my son on my second round of clomid a few years back.

We then wanted to try for another - on our second cycle I fell pregnant but sadly miscarried. So took a little break and now on my second cycle again - af not showed up but bfn on tests. My question is - how many cycles have you done clomid for?

My doc says only one more cycle and then my only option is IVF - I'm quite scared by the thought of that and have no idea why it is not working for me like it did with my son. I've only got one tube as I had an ectopic about 10 months after my son was born (we were not trying)

Has anyone kept going on clomid for more than 3 cycles???

Hiya chick I'm on my 5th round of clomid xx

 

[Monalissa]

everhopeful, my OBGYN says she only uses it for 3 cycles. I've read it can be used for 6 cycles, though I am not sure it's used more than that. HTH!

I am currently 10 or 11 dpo, still not spotting which is good. I still doubt I am pregnant because the reasons I stated earlier (smallish follicle size 24 hours after surge). I don't feel anything really....pregnant or like AF is coming on.

Does anyone know if it's bad to do one cycle of Clomid then stop? I am thinking of finding a new OBGYN or at least going for a second opinion. I'm not comfortable with some of what mine has said based on my own research and even compared to what many of your doctors have told you.

The other day she again said that my 14mm follies could have grown to 20 mm in 12-24 hours. I also asked about my uterine lining when I got my progesterone levels and she said that it does not thin your lining, that it has the opposite affect of making it thicker because of the increased progesterone.

Maybe I am overreacting, I don't know. This is such an emotional time as you all know. :/ But I don't particularly care for her rushed/brusque bedside manner either.

My doc said I can have 6 cycles x

 

[PrincessTaz]

Hey ladies I'm needing a bit of advice please...

I'm on CD4 of my 3rd round of clomid 50mg CD2-6. My periods are getting lighter with every round and I'm getting worried about my lining, is there anything I can do to improve it myself? I don't see my FS until the 4th Jan and that's to get my next 3 rounds but I want to try and do something this cycle. Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks

Princess- perhas you can try acupuncture and/or vit B6 complex?

 

[PrincessTaz]

Princess- perhas you can try acupuncture and/or vit B6 complex?

Thank you.
Acupunture isn't an option this cycle, money is tight with Christmas. I'm uo for trying the vit B6 though. I've just been on holland and barrett's webiste and they do it in 50mg and 100mg, how much should I take and should I take it everyday?

 

[mk8]

Not sure what would be best but I intend to take 50- I am worried about overdosing!

I used to take 100. You cant really overdose on B6 (as long as you are not taking like abnormally large quantities) as it is water soluble and you will pee out the rest of it out. Lol. Dont take more than 100 though. xx

Oh, and it turns your pee neon yellow. Be prepared for that. I was shocked when I saw it!

 

[Lisa92881]

Hi Clomid girls!! Excited to finally be a member of the Clomid club!! I'm looking for any of you who have taken 25 mg and successfully ovulated with that low dose??

 

[PrincessTaz]

Thanks guys
I think I'll try the 100mg then. Do you take them for your whole cycle? Sorry I'm so clueless, when I started clomid my FS didn't even mention it could effect my uterine lining!

 

[trying hard]

yes you take it the whole cycle... And tryin 4 1 is SOOOO right about the neon yellow pee talk about ick!!!

 

[PrincessTaz]

Well I'm going to go buy some today, I'm already 5 days into this cycle but that should be ok, better late than never! Not looking forward to the yeloow pee lol. Thanks for the advice ladies

 

[ebony2010]

Has anyone kept going on clomid for more than 3 cycles???

My FS gave me 6 cycles and I have the option to do 6 more if I want after.

There is a really big thread on here about vit b that you'd get some great info on. xxx
