Answer 1

First, let me say, I'm sorry for your delay in pregnancy.  I too took Clomid--for 6 mos!!!  I was having trouble with my cycles actually starting, so I was given Provera along with Clomid.  I finally got frustrated!  Month after month, and nothing.  I spent a small fortune on these two meds and PTs!  Husband said we were going broke TRYING to have a baby. :)  I finally stopped taking both medications.  Let my body rest, I guess.  But I must say, after trying for 2 years, we're finally expecting--without the help of Clomid.

My recommendation for "fertilty trouble". PRAYER.  When I finally gave up on doctors and relied on God we finally conceived.  I came to the realization that we were only going to have a baby when God thought the timing was right.

*The only side effects I had with Clomid was a "crampy" nauseaous feeling. *

Don't become too discouraged.  I know at times, that seems so vague.  I wish you the best of luck as you continue the journey to conception.

Answer 2

I did three rounds of Clomind, one with IUI.

1st- 150mg, no ovulation

2nd- 200 mg, ovulated, one good follicle

3nd- 250 mg, ovulated, two good follicles, IUI

None of them worked. I am now taking a self-imposed break before I start injectables. I really didn't have any side effects on the Clomid, though I know most women do.

Try not to be too discouraged, the answers you are getting are all from those of us who didn't have success, but there are tons of women who do, they're all over in Pregnancy talking about their bumps!

Answer 3

I did 6 rounds of Clomid (ovualted with 4 of them) neber got pregnant. I currently on injections with are giving me more follicles then the Clomid did. (I go in for IUI today so we'll see) When I was on Clomid the cycles that I ovualted  I had cramping through out. Good Luck!!
