i would say yes to your HA's being caused by the clomid. That is the number 1 SE and 2 is hotflashes.

yeah it all makes sense. I thought they were only se while you were taking them. didn't realize it stayed in your system that long. I def had the hot flashes!

 

[Stevi11]

oh man. I get worse SE's after O. It is a love/hate relationship with clomid isnt it?

It's an antibody attacking my thyroid. all though my thyroid level tested 3.30 endocrinologist have established a new, narrower TSH making the normal range 0.3 to 3.0. because mine was slightly off the RE checked my antibodies and sure enough I was positive, which can hugely effect fertility! a lot of pcp's won't/don't check because there still reading old lab values. RE's of course like to see your TSH at 1.5 (or atleast under2). unbelievable the amount of woman who can't conceive because of this one little factor!

thanks for all the info. is there any signs besides infertility? they plan on checking my thyroid on day 21 this time. I assume its for hypothryodism which is common with pcos. I guess at least you know now. hopefully you will be able to get a bfp soon!!!!

Yes, when I first met with the RE I was having no periods and stomach aches all the time and not to be gross but always constipated. pretty groggy/tired alot too(thought it was normal for me). as soon as I started the medication within a week or two I was feeling awesome and no more stomach problems and periods returned.

Hey ladies so I think i might be O'ing on CD12 this cycle. So much earlier than the last 2 months on clomid. I am a little worried that it is to early but my doctor said at our last appointment that she wanted to see me O on days 12,13 or 14. So at least i'm still in that window I had a + OKP and i had alot of EWCM this morning. So heres to BD'ing like crazy all weekend lol
to everyone and strong 's

 

[here_we_r]

Well Stevi!!! I hope you had a BD marathon girl.

 

[Stevi11]

Sure have!!! lol it was funny too bc my DH did so much around the house Sat. and Sun. hahahaha he was one happy boy. And i woke up early while he was getting ready for work and surprised him with some DB'ing this morning. Then went back to bed before i had to wake up for work.

How are things with you?

I havent had ANY of the symptoms i had the past rounds of clomid. The second was alot easier as far as symptoms. but i still had some cramping after O and bloating. but this time i didnt. Its kinda weird.

 

[here_we_r]

Great job on working him girl

I'm good. AF caught me. I don't think I really O. I think I started the [progesterone before I had a chance to O. So back to square one. I think I'm going to do one more round of 50mg. That's only because the pharmacy gave me too many pills

 

[CCClomidQueen]

lots of cramping this round of clomid.

I went for my follie check today I cant believe it! we are actually moving forward with IUI tomorrow! clomid 100mg days 1-5 worked!

I have 2 on the right 21.5mm and 27mm and 1 on the left is 18mm. I got my trigger shot in the office.

 

[Stevi11]

I am finding myself praying so much more in the last week. I'm a spiritual but not very religious. Maybe i'm just at my wits end. I feel like i have nothing else to give. We have decided to take a break from TTC if we dont get our BFP this cycle. I'm just rambling sorry.
