Default Question about clomid side effects

I have a few questions about clomid for anyone who would be kind enough to answer...
Although I am 38, and have been ttc for over 7 years, I have only recently started taking clomid (had not done any fertility treatments prior to this). I am up to 150 this month (I'm on my third day of taking it). I started with 50-that was OK, although I did have serious night sweats and very painful ovulation (but at least I ovulated!!) But, 100 and now 150 is killing me. It really is making me crazy. I am gaining weight (have been since the beginning), serious mood swings-mainly sad or depressed. If this month doesn't work, I don't know if I can do this again...
My biggest concern is the weight gain---have any of you had this---and, if so, does it stop when you stop taking the meds?
Do the mood swings, etc. stop, or does it take a while?
Thanks for any info------

You poor thing with the side effects, i can't comment too much as i am only on 50mg but the side effects i keep having are annoying but for you i do feel so sorry for you. ((hugs)).
My mood swings just come and go and also the hot flushes. I was recommended taking evening primrose tablets to help with my mood swings and pms (when i get it )
