Thanks! I don't know for sure but I think I read somewhere that you need to have a number above 10 on the progesterone blood work to indicate that you did indeed ovulate. I go on 5/26 Thursday, that would be cd 21 for me. I'm on cd 14 today and I don't feel anything like last cycle. I had the a lot of ovarian discomfort starting on cd 15 - not looking forward to that this time around if it happens. Do you do OPKs? I tried my first today and the line was really light so I'm guessing its a negative. I've heard that sometimes the OPKs aren't reliable? Have you tried & do they work for you?

I used them all my cyles before using clomid and the trigger shot. and I always got postives. but this month I didnt use them. I just bd'd within in normal time frame of having the trigger shot! praying it worked. my f/s said not to mess with opks and having the trigger shot so I tried a couple and starting getting discouraged so I just gave up! lol.... good luck to you! Im excited to go monday for test but will have to wait til tuesday for results

CRC25 - Good luck on your progesterone test on Mon!

CAZ - they all sound like good symptoms to me! Good Luck!

I'm on cd15 and took my second OPT today and got another negative. I've decided to just make sure to so the db every other day and see what happens at this point!

Hi Ladies,

No side effects or symptoms yet on this second round of clomid (50 mg). I'm on cd17 and dh and I are doing the bd every other day! Does the clomid make any of you really horny? I think its a side effect for me as it was last month around this time. Dr thinks this round would be a bust since my last period was so heavy and lasted so long. OPK's are still negative! I hope my dr. is wrong and this round does the trick!

 

[caz & bob]

goodluck hun the horny ness could be a symptom hun i haven't had it haha x x x

 

[iluvmysam]

Yazzy- That could be a sign of ovulation. OPK didn't work for me when I got pregnant with my son after using 1 round of clomid (50mg). The only sign of ovulation then was a bit of spotting and a little from my right ovary. Good luck!

Hi ladies I started my very first round of 50mg Clomid in March, I did ovulate but did not get pregnant. Then my second round in April, I ovulated as well only this time I did find out I was pregnant. I got my first positive hpt on 5/14. My doctor wanted me to come in asap, so I went on on 5/17. He did blood work, and told me to call back the next day to schedule and appointment for an ultrasound in a couple of weeks. A couple hours later they called me back asking me to go do some more blood work on 5/19. They said that my HCG was 86, and they wanted to make sure it was going up like it should. Well, I did my bloodwork and the next day he called me back and told me that my HCG had dropped to a 77, and my progesterone was only at 2. He said since I was only about 4.5 weeks along, that I should miscarry soon and it would be like a period. I started bleeding yesterday early in the morning, and am still passing everything today. I am soooo nervous to try again, I want to more than anything... but I am scared that it will happen again. We have tried for 3 years now, and did not think getting pregnant was possible for me. I would like to try the Clomid again, but after reading tons of info online last night, I read that there are tons of women who get pregnant within 2-4 weeks of their miscarriage. Some say that your body is more fertile at this time, and that your hormones will have a boost -- but I have no idea if this is true. I am curious if I will have to use the Clomid again to get pregnant. My doctor had mentioned that since my levels were low, he would like to sit down and talk to us about options of putting me on estrogen(?) or progesterone before I even get a positive test again. I am just so confused at this point Has anyone else ever been in this position? I would love to get pregnant again asap, but I am afraid it wont happen again. I am sorry this was so long, I just really needed someone to talk to. Good luck to all of you ladies on Clomid, it does work! I did have a m/c, but I never in my wildest dreams thought I would ever get pregnant.

 

[LesleyL]

aw sorry to hear about your loss annie. that is great that you know you can get pregnant, but aweful that the miscarriage had to happen. my heart goes out to you. hope you can get pregnant again soon.

 

[missangie]

Sorry about your loss Annie. I cant even imagine what it must be like to finally see a BFP and then have it taken away. I have heard that you are often more fertile right afterwards. I havent been in your position but Im crossing my fingers that you will recieve good news soon!

 

[missangie]

I see the FS this Friday where I am hoping to be prescribed clomid since I have not been ovulating (4 periods since stopping bc April '10 and 2 were provera induced, I guess 5 if you count the withdrawal bleed from stopping bc) I have CD22 bloods tuesday and then the appt friday. We will also find out DH's semen analysis results then. I was told at my last appt that i would be given clomid most likely depending on blood results and SA results. I wanna speed things along and am tempted to start provera after I do the bloodwork Tuesday evening so that if I do in fact get clomid on friday I will be a few days closer to actually getting to use it. haha is that horrible for me to even be thinking to do that? its just a few days but I have been waiting so long and am excited to actually have something to help me ovulate. IMPATIENT ;-)

 

[LesleyL]

lol that is funny cause i am doing the same thing with the provera. i think i am going to fill the script and start it tomorrow......it will be cd 34 for me and neg hpt and no period after the clomid. i have had 3 periods induced by provera since stopping bcp in may 2010.....in the same position as you. clomid, cycle 1 a fail...on to cycle 2.

 

[missangie]

Alright Lesley, we have been TTC for about the same time then. Fingers crossed you get your BFP on clomid cycle 2 and me on clomid cycle 1 and then we can be bump buddies ;-) (im trying the whole positive thinking approach haha) so im assuming you didnt ovulate on your first cycle of clomid?
