First clomid cycle...anyone else????

[Peachy1584]

Cider I took 100mg clomid days 3-7 and am on cd 14. Had an ultrasound yesterday and all we care about is the left side as I have no right tube. The clomid finally worked on the left (my right ovary is dominant) and I had 1 at 24mm and 2 at 15mm . I am hoping the 24 is a cyst so I can trigger when the 2 15's are bigger and have more of a chance. Never thought I would hope for a cyst. I have another uu/s tomorrow so tons of luck to both of us!

hope it is ok if i join the topic.

i am starting my first cycle of Clomid ( 100MG) on 10/31 and super nervous! any suggestions are welcome and appreciated!!

we have been trying for a year and this is our first time to use "assistance" i have endometriosis which i have had multiple surgeries for.

did i mention i was super scared? lol

Ashley-- If it helps, my doctor told me to take the pills at night, and I had no side-effects, as far as I could tell. Of course, I have yet to see whether Clomid will work for me, but I'm hopeful!

Peachy -- great to have someone on nearly the same cycle! I wish both of us luck!

Ashley this is my first month on 100mg. The 2 cycles before were 50mg. I took them all at night and I was moody here and there and have had hot flashes. Harmless but irritating. I would probably just focus on your cm. Mine is not the same so I am worried and wish I had done some things before I was this far in my cycle.

Cider if I may ask why did they decide on 100mg for you and have you ever used Femera?

The hot flushes are killing me off, I'm so uncomfortable in bed, I'll be dozing off then one will come on!!! Only on 50mg too!!
So bloated too!!

Peachy: I don't know exactly why my RE decided on 100 mg, and no, I've never used Femara.

My RE and I are going to try and be quite aggressive about getting pregnant ASAP, because I have a short-ish time window to get pregnant. I'm trying to minimize the amount of time I'm off of medication for an unrelated medical condition (the medication is not safe during pregnancy), so maybe he just wanted to maximize my changes and went for 100? Not exactly sure.

Anyways, u/s today shows 1 follicle at 12 mm, the rest still smaller, so I am not triggering yet.

Cider - my doctor is doing the same aggressive approach. he said women usually start with 50MG but he wants me to go ahead and do 100MG.

I am so nervous yet excited! I wasn’t supposed to start it until next month because when I was prescribed I was at the end of my period and it was too late. then on the 27th I started again for the second time this month.. I called to see if I should start now or still wait and she said do it now!

how does everyone feel about the possibility of multiples? my husband’s sister and brother both have a set of twins and so does my sister so our chances were already high!

 

[CiderDonut]

Well, u/s yesterday showed 1 follicle at 12mm, and many smaller ones. Estradiol is continuing to go up, so that's good. Another ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow, and hopefully I'll have a couple of follicles at that point. It does seem like at this rate, I won't ovulate till after CD20, which is a tiny bit worrying for me.

Peaches: I would prefer not to have twins, but if I do, hey, there's my instant ideal-sized family!

 

[CakeCottage]

Cycle monitoring scan today, had 3 large follicles (15mm, 17mm & 19mm) and lots of smaller ones developing!

 

[Peachy1584]

I wouldn't mind twins. At my age I would kind of be glad they have eachother because I would not try again. At my u/s yesterday the 24 stayed the same so they believe that's a cyst and I had one at 21 and one at 15 so I did the trigger shot at 3pm yesterday. Looking back into ivf and thinking about using my one frozen embryo.

 

[Peachy1584]

Cider don't worry about the growth rate as kong as everything is going well. I know it's irritating though waiting all the time.

Cake what great numbers!

Hi ladies!

Welcome to all the new people who are joining us Glad to have you! I am excited to follow all of your experiences.

I'm not 10-11 DPO and just waiting for something to happen one way or the other! I have no symptoms other than being super cranky today (I think it's just that kind of day and I have more to do than I have time for!), so I'll just wait until day 15 to see if AF comes

Bazz, did you call the dr?

 

[bazzb]

Yep I go in to see him on Tuesday

Good luck to everyone
Sorry I've been so quiet
This cycle has thrown me off a bit
Xx

How's everyone feeling?

I had one follicle at 18mm on Saturday, so the doctor had me trigger 36 hours later, and so now I'm hoping to ovulate within the next day or so, and then the TWW begins!

Hope that my chances are good despite having only one good follicle. That's all it takes, right?

 

[CakeCottage]

Think I ovulated today... Had a + opk yesterday and nothing today!

 

[Peachy1584]

Yes Cider that is all it takes and I ovulated last Fri way early morning. My chances are small but the disappointment will still be huge so I'm still hoping for the best!!
