**Clomid Girls** ~ Updated ~ 11 BFP'S AND COUNTING!!

[rosababy]

I'm so sorry that clomid isn't working well for you. Have you had the checked? I only seem to have mild cramping throughout the cycle and hot flashes. They were annoying, but manageable. I went on for low progesterone, and my progesterone had more than doubled this cycle, so my doc said it worked! I didn't have follicle scans though, so I can't help you there. I hope this cycle works for you!

I have told them how bad I was feeling, hot flushes, increased appetite, headaches, pains in tummy, feeling sick etc. They just said it was normal.

I have paid for 4 cycles worth so next month will be last, although I am allowed up to 6 months in total if I wish to continue.
I really thought they would of worked by now. This month I only had one follicle measuring 17. So they have increased my dose next month.

The time between ovulating and the date you can do a preg test just seems to drag on forever!
How are things going for you on them?

I also had follicles that were not maturing and was put on Clomid. They grew a little but I noticed that when I started taking Metformin, they grew quite a bit and much faster then without. I am not sure if this was a coincidence though

Those are all symptoms of high progesterone! Unfortunately, it's probably not the Clomid doing it to you, but it's just a symptom of a good ovulation. I've had similar problems, both on and off Clomid. The reason the symptoms are worse on Clomid is because your progesterone is higher. Hopefully, you'll get your BFP and won't need another cycle, though

nlz- Cycle #3 for me, 50 mg, testing April 22nd.

Apparently, the doctor wants more testing now...so I'm off to get an HSG to check that my tubes aren't blocked on Thursday morning...and DH has to get get a SA. I'm slightly freaked out about this procedure....Anyone else had this done??

Why do say it's probably not the clomid doing it to her? I was put on clomid to raise my progesterone, so indirectly, it probably is the clomid...all good signs, though! I have these symptoms, too. LOOOONG luteal phase, which is totally annoying, but also because of the high progesterone, probably.

Good to get the tests done, though. Start crossing some things off the list. My dh got his SA this morning. We get results tomorrow. Haven't had a hsg though. I've heard it's not too bad.

Hi, Mabel! Glad to hear you have some big follicles! Hopefully it'll lead to a nice big bfp.

 

[familyready]

hey all!!! I will be taking 50mg my first cycle! I am starting to get anxious to take it, I have an ultrasound one week from today to make sure that I have no more cyst on my uterus, and then I will start , it has been one long 18 months!!! But I must say trying has been a lot of fun I will test early May! Add me to the list!

 

[iprayforbump]

Hey Ladies! I just wanted to let you all know how wonderful you've been and how much I appreciated the support and advice. I'm going to be taking a month off from everything...including here. I'm just going to take a well deserved break. I can't do my first IUI until May so I figured I should go into it with a fresh mind set. Good luck to you all! I'll be back in May.

nlz thanks for the updated list.
I'm glad that you don't have a lot of nausea and your scan is only 9 days away.
It's so exciting!! Did you have follow up scans around ovulation? If so, how many eggs were there? Do you have a feeling that there is more than one?

 

[mrshanna]

Kristin. Im with ya hun. Im taking a Clomid break myself. Relax and enjoy the break!

 

[nlz2468]

hi mona! no problem with the updated list like to keep everyone in the know

10days til scan its friday next week so nervous just want to know if everythings well with bubs...

i only had a scan on my 12th day into cycle all they said was my right ovary was making good progress and left one is catching up but she never actually said how big or how many follies were there.

Still waiting for the doc to call with the SA results. I've already called twice, and they said the doc himself has to call, and he's busy.
