Femara Friends!

[Nightnurse]

Hi all ,after more than 9 round of clomid over a 3 year period and me and my DF being together for 15 years and NTNP for about 13 of them and not a BFP that I am aware of I asked my GP to prescribe Femara,I live on a very small island in the Caribbean so some drugs might not be available,so he asked me to see if I can get it here first,after many call I found 1 pharmacy that stocks it,for the 10 pills (5mg) it will cost $122,so I go on Friday to collect my prescription and await AF,

Hi guys,AF was 5 days late so was so stressed so got a chance to update....

So I started DF on wellman conception vitamins so will start my first round of Femara cycle 4-8 so by the time we are ready to BD the vitamins will have a little chance to start working,I hope that I wont have too many cycles on this

How's everyone going? Any updates?
Sending loads of positive vibes your way Karen. I hope things turn around for you really soon x.
Going into debt really sucks Lola. We will be paying loans for the next 6 years and we pretty much sold everything we had to do ivf. We had a good outcome so we are fine with it but it was tough when it wasn't working x

my doctor said legally they have to monitor me. It is against the law not to. So frustrating, and I don't even think it is true.

i was told too that they had to monitor me incase i would get a cyst or whatever they wouldnt want to give me more fertility drugs if i had a cyst so it wouldnt rupture. thats what they told me....at least that was one of the reasons. A friend of mine is on metformin with the same doctor and she isnt being monitored.

yeah the debt part sucks but I just cant get past it, I thought once we started fostering it would change but it hasn't. I keep seeing those tiny babies on here and I WANT ONE!!!

 

[Chook]

And you bloody deserve one Lola!!!

Hey ladies!! I am LTTTC, this is my first cycle on femara. I hope it works!! Have any of you ladies experienced side effects from it? I have felt dizzy & hot today. Just wondering if that is normal??

 

[Blackbarbie04]

I probably only had hot flashes with Femara, but I love Femara waaaaay better than Clomid. Plus Clomid thins your lining...

Hi,just finished my first round of femara yesterday ,had some headaches but have the flu so dont know which it was other than that not felt too bad on it,definately better than clomid,have you finished yours ? hope we both get our BFP's

 

[laurabe]

I didn't really have any symptoms on femara.

 

[Grateful365]

I took Femara twice...first time I had a couple days of horrible headaches...the next time, no side effects at all.

 

[wantabby]

Thanks ladies! And no nightnurse I am on day 2 (cd4) of Femera. I haven't had any symptoms today. With Clomid I would be dizzy/see spots and the week leading to ovulation I would have horrible night sweats. I'm hoping that does not happen with the Femera!

 

[ZKinsey]

tommyg - YES!!!! I did 4 rounds total, 7.5mg. First 2 rounds, didn't ovulate, 3rd round chemical pregnancy, 4th round sticky bean, and now I have a happy & healthy 3 1/2 month old boy Good luck to you!!! Hopefully this is it for you!

Has anyone noticed that their luteal phase has gotten longer on Femara? I've read that you period can come a few days late on it.
