Default Startng Clomid 2/08

I just did an HSG test and everythig came back perfect as well as well as m DH's sperm count. Anyway, I was wondering how it was starting clomid for the first time, what side effects did you have first starting clomid and did anyone have any luck stories? i would love to hear them, I keep hearing stories of women having no luck and I would love some encouragement!!!

HI! I actually am just finishing up my clomid for the first cycle. I will take my 5th pill tomorrow.

So far, I have had nothing significant in the way of side effects. I have been a little moody, but nothing terrible. I have had a bit of a headache too, but my sinuses are acting up, so it could be either one.

Don't worry too much.

I only had mild hot flashes on the first couple of rounds. They got worse and more prolonged with each dosage increase and with each successive round. A small price to pay, IMO, for two pregnancies in five tries!

HTH and GL to you!

Im On Clomid Right Now. I've Only Been Taking It For 4 Days Though. So I Really Don't Notice A Change In My Moods. My Husband Does Though. It's Usually Not Normal For Me To Fly Off The Handle Over Small Things. Anyways, Today I Did.. I Was Mad At Him Because We Were Out Of Butter.

LOL . Good Luck On Clomid.

I don't have any experience with clomid (yet) but I'm here to give you some encouragement! I know 2 women who conceived with clomid and while both admitted to some moodiness & crying they also said it was worse on their husband than it was on them. So just warn him!

Sending you lots of positive thoughts and baby dust.

I just finished my 2nd round of clomid 100mg CD3-7 and the only side effects that I had were a little dizziness and some moodiness (according to my DH). I would recommend taking it at night before bed that way you sleep through any side effects you may get. Good luck!

I'm starting 50 mg Clomid on Monday (CD5). I'm actually excited about the possibility. My skin could turn blue if it meant I could be pg.

hi everyone
I thought I would jump in, I get insomnia with my AF which is very annoying..
I just got AF today, I had my last provera 13 days ago so I was really getting worried that we would not be able to start the clomid now but here AF is and for once I'm not minding the cramps and insomnia too much. I am starting clomid on CD 4 and will take it for 5 days. I use the Clear blue easy fertility monitor and check my mucus so I can be pretty sure about when or if I ovualte. Good luck to everyone out there, here is hoping to the BFP'S!
