babybooties, they advise that you don't start testing for ovulation until three days after your last Clomid tablet. The reason for this is that it gives false results.

As for side effects, they are vast and plentiful.

CurlySue is right about the OPK results. They are supposed to be correct 4 or so days after your last clomid pill. Have you used OPK's before to know how they work for you? I don't know your story, but if you have PCOS you might usually get positive OPK's all the time. Your results *should* be reliable from 4 days after you stopped the clomid - what cycle days did you take it?

As for the period cramps CD2-4, weren't you having a period at that point anyways?!

Yeah, if you've been testing since CD3 they will be false positives. I've even tested this theory and it is right.
The cramping on CD2 3 and 4 could be a reaction to the Clomid, although the CD7 cramping could be a sign of early O?

Give yourself a day or two break. Clomid has many side effects, and it's different for everyone.

I found that I was bloated a bit (pants were snug) and I also experienced heart burn with the Clomid. All in all, it wasn't too bad.

They say you ovulate between 5 and 10 days after your last tablet (some say 6 to 12) so the pain you are feeling might be ovulation.
