I'll be in the Clomid group I have 5 months left.

You're not going to need yours, just send it to me! j/k ;-)

 

[mommyof2peas]

Lol

For those having to buy the clomid out of pocket likebme, go to Walmart. It's $9 for 5 50mg. Way cheapest I've found

Cbeary - I guess the blood results convinced her I wasnt full of it? I really dont know lol. She just said they are sure I have PCOS now so I guess she just wanted the blood work before giving it to me.

I do believe mine is a low dose of clomid though, but I havent picked up the prescription and I cant remember the exact dose to said over the phone. Ill let you ladies know.

Mine is 50 which I think is the lowest

How do you determine if you should go on clomid or not? Is it only if you are not ovulation? I think I am having a failed attempt at ovulation this month but I also think I had a very early MC last month and my first cycle after the MC in December I failed to ovulate as well. Does that sound like something that would call for a need for clomid?

From what i understand Clomid stops certain hormones from working so the ones that do make sure ovulation happens each month. I am fairly certain I ovulate each month as I get positive opk and temp rise but I've been put on it to increase my chances.

Lol

I've seen your lines! Good luck! Hope this is it for you x

Can you guys but it over the counter? In the UK my GP cannot prescribe it even. It has to be a fertility specialist. xx

I did test. Nothing. 10 DPO so Im not holding much hope. I dont have any symptoms. My chart isnt looking so pretty anymore. So Im sure Im off to the next month.

I take it at night. But I still get the night sweats and headaches. It will help with some side effects if you are sleeping

Our GP can't give it, but our OBs can. The Ob are the lady docs that do your yearly and take care of you while pregnant. They aren't specialist in fertility, but a little more so then our GP when it comes to lady bits.

I'm probably gonna start mine on Monday or Tuesday - that will be cd2. Not looking forward to side effects

I've heard if you take it at night you don't get as many side effects???

Will let you know how I get on

Yeah - I got mine from the fertility specialist. I've been seeing them/doing tests for about twelve months before they gave them to me

My chart is driving me nuts, most definitely out this month (again). Mommy, are you testing today???

Boo. I hope it's just a glitch in the chart x

Not looking forward to night sweats

Mommy of 2 peas - have you got any advice about when you ovulate on clomid? Should it be the same as normal or would it delay/bring it forward?

I always ovulate cd12\13 and have to plan as hubby has a low sex drive

I'm frightened it we start early and it is delayed we won't make it to the finishing post

 

[Teeny Weeny]

I didn't have any side effects this cycle. I was worried as I took 100mg. I must have got lucky.
Good luck to all testing soon... We need to see some more BFPs. Xx

From what I have read it should be 5-10 days after your last pill. Xx

 

[SilasLove]

I really hope I ovulate. I'm concerned clomid won't work for me or something. (Me just being me and worrying)

The only month I got a +opk it was on cd22 so it would be nice to ovulate at a more regular pace.

We have been trying 7 months, and was told to wait for 9 months before OB would consider doing clomid but after blood draw and progesterone was only .7 I guess that changed things? Not really sure, but I am not going to complain.

I'm not really sure. Ive heard it delays for some and brings some forward. Rule of thumb is 10 days after your last pill. But of course that can be different for everyone.

Ive never had the night sweats like some do. Mine or more of a hot flash. My face flushes and I need a fan, but I dont wake up in a puddle of sweat.

I would try every other day. That way you can keep up. lol

 

[c beary83]

Ha-ha - we do that anyway

 

[cnswilliams]

Mommy- sorry about the bfn, hopefully it was just too early? I still haven't decided if I should by any tests or not. My only chance of getting Prego would be if the sperm lasted 4 days or we caught the egg within the 24 hour window after I ovulated. Who knows, timing it perfectly hasn't worked, maybe it will be this crazy scenario that gets it done.

So to all getting on clomid, are all of you not ovulating? Or does it help with more than that? How long did all of you ttc before you talked to the doc?

 

[mommyof2peas]

I'm on it to help strengthen my eggs. Im 34 and have had two MMC in a row. But Im debating going off it for a few months. Im starting to think I'm not ovulating as strong as I should be anymore. I've always ovulated on my own, but the last few months I haven't gotten a positive OPK. Its been 7 months since my last MC. I should be regnant by now.

 

[Teeny Weeny]

I don't always ovulate as I have PCOS. I spoke to the doctor after 6 months due to this and the fact I am getting older. We are now on out 13th cycle. We had a MMC 3 months ago. I needed Clomid for DS2 which took us 18 months. Xx

 

[c beary83]

I spoke to the doctor after six month ttc because I'm a bit older and was worried it would take a while (never expected this long).

I've been seeing the specialist for the last twelve month and had various tests done on me and hubby which show everything is fine

Hubby has slightly less morphology but they didn't seem that worried as it was only 1% below normal and everything else was fine.

I was supposed to go for a hsg in April but I had a miscarriage that month so they didn't do that one as it showed that at least one of my tubes was open

So they gave me clomid after that to give me more chances at catching an egg.

I've done a few month naturally since then because I heard that you are more fertile after a loss but that hasn't worked for me

 

[drjo718]

I would ovulate eventually but I could take me 2 to 5 months due to pcos, so i tried clomid almost right away. It didn't work for me. Then I started on femara and that worked the 2 cycles I tried it. I'm starting it again tomorrow.
