First time on medications any tips?

[manduh726]

After four years of being unsuccessfully trying on our own I finally broke down and ask for medications from my doctor. She is starting me on progesterone which I am currently on day three and the clomid to ovulate.

I am having some wicked hot flashes and slight heart burn from the pills but it will all be worth it.

I have read some of the ladies take their pills at night to sleep through most of the side affects. I have been getting into the habit of doing that. Are there anymore tips and tricks with these meds.

Does anyone know of any success stories on these meds? I know I am on first cycle of them and it probably won't happen but I can't not hope it does work!

I'm on my second round of clomid, last month was the first time in two years I've been prescribed it. I miscarried the last week in August so I'm really hoping this helps get us a miracle baby. This round they upped my dosage to 100mg days 3-9. Yesterday had horrible side effects. Nausea, hot flashes, headaches. I'm wondering if I can switch from taking mine in the morning, to taking it in the evening? I'm on my third day out of seven.

What dosage/days are you on for clomid?

I am on 50 mg and I am suppose to start them on day 5 to day 9. I just had my last provera pill last night. This is my first round ever of clomid and my hubby and I have been trying for 4 years naturally.

How's this cycle going? I'm on cd 33-34 and no AF. I'm going in for blood hcg test, since I've miscarried before. I'm not hopeful, bc Clomid can affect your cycle length. My cd21 bloods were great though, dr thinks I may have ovulated two eggs since the progesterone was so high.

Just found out my progesterone was .1 really bad!!!

For the record you can take the meds any time you want, but you shouldn't change from morning to night within the same cycle

I always took it at night

Hi girls,
I am currently on my fourth round of clomid. I am 14dpo and had a negative preg test yesterday so am not overly hopeful this is the month...but hopefully AF stays away.
I'm sorry to hear about your low progesterone Manduh, but with an increase in dose of clomid you will likely ovulate. Which dose were you on this round?

Ltruns did you get your blood results yet? Do you know which day you ovulated? I have my fingers crossed for you-hopefully this month is your month!! I am 14dpo no sign of AF, if I can get through tomorrow without AF I will be a teensy bit hopeful I may get a BFP. My progesterone was also quite high at 65.8 so I wonder if I am not pregnant if my LP will be longer this month.

Fingers crossed for all of us, and so muchall around.

I was on 50mg they are going to raise it just waiting on af now.

Good luck on round 2!

I'm starting round 3, round 2 I ovulated great, but no bfp. Here's to round 3!

My af can on cd 33/34. but my levels were really high too like 68, I think. I ovulated on cd 14 so that means my LP was really long, I guess? Do you know if that's good/bad?

Hi I'm sorry AF showed up. Regarding the lp I don't know it that is good or bad, but it is good that you had a strong ovulation. Today with FMU I had a questionable positive internet cheapie, but negative FRER. I don't trust those cheapies though so I will wait to retest in the morning if AF isn't here yet.
