Next will month be our 12 month of trying and the doctor is going to put me on Clomid.?

Question

What should I expect while taking Clomid? Side effects etc......

Answer 1

I took clomid and had no side effects Good luck!

Answer 2

Generally, Clomid side effects are mild and not particularly troublesome. At higher doses you may experience: mood swings, nausea and vomiting, breast tenderness, headache and fatigue. 30% of women using Clomid also experience changes in their cervical mucous. Cervical mucous can then become hostile to sperm, making conception difficult. Clomid is generally a very effective drug for most women suffering from ovulatory dysfunction. In fact, between 70% and 90% of women taking Clomid begin to ovulate within the first three cycles. Additionally, 40% of couples become pregnant during the first three cycles. It is important to be aware that there is a 5% to 10% chance of multiple pregnancy (especially twin pregnancy) when taking Clomid. Speak to your fertility specialist if you are concerned about multiple pregnancy.

Answer 3

I was just finished clomid.  I will be back to the Dr.'s on Wed. to do a ultrasound and given a shot to push the ovulation along.  I had no side effects with it.  I did take it right before bed, so perhaps that is why there were no side effects.  Good luck!

Answer 4

Some of the side-effects are like being pregnant.  Nausea, moodswings, body aches.  Really depends on how high the dose is.  Starting out they go with a very low dose but by the time i got to the highest dose i was so emotional and was actually starting to hallucinate (Dr's couldn't figure out why I was doing that though).
