Sorry to jump in, I've never taken clomid but the NHS has given me 6months worth to take, completely unmonitored.

I already ovulate and am really nervous about not having monitoring.

Just curious to know who here is/isn't monitored via the NHS?

 

[Lily7]

Hi Hun I am being monitored but we had to go private as my gp is a tool! In fact I just recently went for an appt that I was called for but I asked to see a different doctor, anyway I ended up in floods of tears and told her my whole story from start to finish and she was disgusted, she referred me there and then but I the waiting time to be seen here is approx 4 months! She knows I already had to go private to see where my periods were and find out I have pcos, she also knows I have already been given clomid (that I had to pay for!!)

Anyway, sorry to go off on one there but in answer to your question, yes I am but I have read of girls who aren't on here too. Good luck x

Caz...I think we are pretty much at the same place in our cycles! My LP is normally quite long - 16 days though.

Nell...I think I have been one of the lucky one's who has had a fantastic experience so far with they NHS. They couldn't have been more helpful and although they all have certain times they can offer help they have done this for me without question. I am on my 2nd cycle of clomid, first cycle was 50mg and didn't work (bloods taken cd21) so this month I have taken 100mg clomid and had my cd21 blood test this morning. That is the only monitoring I am having. I was told when I get a BFP to phone the nurse who is looking after me and they will take everything from there and give early scans.

Yazzy - yes mine have given me a blood test form to confirm ovulation after the first cycle of clomid too. But no ultrasound monitoring, I'm concerned i already have thin lining, plus i have fibroids i'd like them to keep an eye on too with the clomid.

I couldn't get in this cycle for my HSG in any case as they had no appintments and they want me to be clomid free on the cycle of and the one before the HSG, so looks like i can't start it for the next few months in any case

My follow up is in september and at this rate i might not even have started the tablets!

woopp yazzy we can Cheer each other on haha cycle buddies x x x

 

[yazzy]

Caz...woop woop cycle buddies, fingers crossed for us both that it is a lucky cycle!

 

[LesleyL]

i don't get monitored at all...no bloods or scans at all. the doc said i will a. get pg b. get period or c. not get period by day 30...if i don't get a period, i get a pelvic exam to check for cysts. 100 mg worked, because i got my period for the first time without provera in 14 months.

 

[missangie]

Im not being monitored, just going in for a CD21 bloodtest to see if it confirms ovulation or not... Im jealous of everyone who is monitored, I wanna know whats going on!

 

[caz & bob]

Hi there

Let me explain a bit about myself.

I am 34 and 21 day bloods came back fine. DH has low count of 7 mil but not bad movement.

We saw our FS for the first time last week and she sent me for day 3 bloods plus she took some swabs. I also have to have a Hycosy in a couple of months. We are booked to go back to her in 3 months when all my results are back and then she wants to prescribe clomid for a couple of cycles as she said these would make my eggs easier for the sperm to enter.

Have any of you been prescribed Clomid when you are ok but the problem is with DH? Would be grateful for your comments.

xx

 

[LesleyL]

hi bert. i have read some ppl on here say that they have been given the clomid even though they ovulate. you just have to be monitored for ovarian hyperstimulation.

husband is going away saturday hopefully ill o in the next few days. we dtd yesterday and don't think we will get to again until sunday

 

[lolageorgia]

Hi All,
Im new!

Just been stared on my first round of Clomid and Provera...
Have had PCOS since my teens (im now 29) and do not ovulate on my own.
Am on 10mg Progesterone for 5 days (am on day 3) then will be on Clomid 3-7.
ANyone starting their journey too?

I have read some horror stories about AF after provera...horrible painful/heavy/long, anyone had this? Am terrified of finishing the course! How long after provera finished did you get AF? Anyone conceiving on 1st round clomid?
Sorry for all the questions, no one I know has/is going through IVF or assisted so no-one can help me!
Thanks ladies
xx

 

[LesleyL]

hi lola
i take provera too. the periods were no worse for me with them then my regular period when i was on bcp.

first round of clomid was a failure.
2nd round got bumped to 100 mg, and i ovulated and got af on my own.
hoping 3rd round is a charm and i get pg

i am on cd 12 today. i'm pretty sure i o'd on cd 18 last cycle, but my cycle was only 27 days long, so i am not positive of that.

 

[yazzy]

Hey everyone, well I had my cd21 bloods done and the nurse has told me I didn't ovulate However I am 100% positive I did going by all the signs and symptoms that I get everytime I ovulate. I did explain that I thought I O'd on cd18 or 19 and she said in this case my blood test should be carried out on cd25....so i'm off to get my bloods done again tomorrow...so fingers crossed!

Not that confident for this cycle although we did everything we could as i'm about 6dpo and my bb's are getting less sore by the day but we will see, i'm sure taking the clomid has made my tww symptoms different than normal.

How are you all getting on???

 

[caz & bob]

girls good luck for all of us x x x
