Not sure if this has been done before but am due to start clomid next month and could do with some happy stories. Please let me know why you were prescribed it and how long it took to get pregnant.
I know i am in the wrong thread but didn't get a response on ttc thread. As hopefully you are all here.
Hi there,
I was prescribed Clomid for Polycystic ovaries as my periods were really irregular. I conceived on the second month and I am now 33 weeks pregnant. The only side effect I noticed was really bad PMT. Good luck!
Hiya, I was prescribed it for secondary infertily - all test results had come back as normal, but I had a luteal phase defect - my cycles were only 26/27 days & I wasn't ov'ing till day 19. I had 3 cycles of 50mg of clomid & conceived on the 3rd cycle. I also started a 6 week course of reflexology at the beginning of the 2nd clomid cycle...... highly recommended
We tried for well over a year for a baby, and in the end I had a laparoscopy to check my one and only tube was ok (I lost the other to an ectopic). That was February and then I was given a 6 month supply of Clomid starting in May. I took it cd2-6 and suffered no side effects at all. It also worked first time, and I'm now 13 weeks pregnant. Touch woiod everything seems fine.
Good luck to you too.
I am now on my 3rd round of clomid. i hope that this will be my last month. last month i had a positive test and found out three days later it was a chemical pregnancy. this month i got my period with out any help. i hope this will play a factor and i will get pregnat this month. your stories has really helped me to keep going. thank you everyone.
yes I was lucky enough to have conceived after 1 round after trying for 1 year - the doctor didn't really explain what the issues were - my hormone levels were a little low and my periods every 23 days, very light...I'm not sure but Chlomid worked amazingly and didn't cause me any side effects other than a little tension, like PMT- I am now 6 months!
best of luck and please keep us posted on how it goes xx
hi just to let you know my sucess story fell on 1st round of clomid but had eptopic, had 9 months free and then started again, fell on 1st round again had daughter last nov then refused to go on any contraception as was trying for 4 years and am now 28 weeks preg all natural,fell preg after 3 and half months!!
perhaps its down to stress and trying to hard ?! or maybe be its just that i was so happy with being a mummy that my system just had a kick start. my cycle went straight back to 28days after having daughter and before hand for years was only 23 dys!!
i am going to watch this thread as i started clomid last month and need to hear some positive feedback as feeling really negative at mo, thanks for starting this thread
Hi there,
I have tried 50mg of Clomid ad nothing happened! We have been trying for 22 months and I am getting very frustrated! I have just had a laparoscopy and my tubes are ok but my ovaires are stuck right at the back probably as a result of endometriosis at some stage. Has anyone else heard or had a similar experience, as my consultatnt told me that there was no reason for me not to be able to conceive! I have just finished taking 100mg of Clomid to see if that works!! It made me like a She Devil!!! Good luck to all.
Just wanted to share that I've had 3 friends take clomid (2 for ovulation issues and one for polycystic ovaries) and all conceived within 3 months. Two of my friends conceived again (rather quickly)without it the next time- I guess it kickstarts your body?
I was prescribed Clomid after it turned out that fixing my underactive thyroid STILL hadn't made me ovulate. Conceived on the third cycle; DD is now 3.5.
I have PCOS and started Clomid this month, i read everything written on the internet about it. I didnt imagine that after taking Clomid for one month it would be me writing a success story.
It is very early days as i only found out i am pregnant yesterday, but fingers crossed everything will be okay.
I am in total shock. :0
Good Luck to everyone who is either thinking about Clomid, taking it for the first month or been taking it for a few months. It really Does Work!
Just listen to the Doctors and follow their instructons and im sure it will work for you too.
I took clomid for secondary infertility after 18 of trying. Stopped it after 3m due to side effects but then pregnant first month of stopping so I think it must have 'jolted' me into action or something! Anyways its still early days for me so fingers crossed!
I was prescribed Clomid 12 months after a MC, unexplained infertility, no issues with tubes/hubby/cycle etc. Took 1 cycle of 50mg, then 3 cycles of 100mg as prescribed by GP. IVF consultant then told me to reduce back to 50mg (he said the chances of conceiving on 50mg were higher than 100mg - which seemed odd).
Anyway, after 5th cycle finally got BFP and now 11+2. Had scan this week and there's only 1 bean in there.
Hubby very understanding but did say I turned into a pyscho when taking the pills. Also had hot flushes on the nights I took the pills. Was advised by another MNer to take the pills at night - that way you sleep through most of the side effects (which did seem to work).
Also noticed that with each cycle I had pregnancy type symptoms towards my period due time - so whilst clomid worked for me, it did mess with my head.
hi natty nice to see you back! i was on clomid for none ovulting, was given 50 mg took for 2 months got pg sadley lost it, but month after got pg again, now shes 15 weeks old
hiya Natty - only a quickie, just wanted to leave a word of encouragement. I was delighted to concieve on my second month of clomid. Previous to this I had ovarian drilling to deal with PCOS and also lap and dye to check tubes.
Felt like I would never get pregnant, and when I first went on clomid, I was like you and hunted out the success stories.
Keep at it girl, dont give up, and GOOD LUCK!!
xxxxxxx
Now 32 weeks pg, after 9 cycles of clomid. 3 years of being under consultant. m/c last year after lap and dye, that was twins. Lost twin to this baby too, but this one VERY health.
I was diagnosed with unexplained infertility !! So clomid worked for me xXx
I'm in the same situation as you natty; still trying to conceive. Me and my husband have been trying to conceive for about a year and a half now. So far I have taken one cycle of clomid with no success, and when my period comes this month I will take another.I really hope this time it works! I just keep praying about it. I'm sure it will happen in Gods time. I'll keep you in my prayers, please keep me in yours.
Be sure to let us know about your success story when it happens!
I was prescribed Clomid after my periods went AWOL after a MC in March this year. I had a bleed five weeks after MC, then a period six weeks after that and then nothing! 12 weeks later the consutant gave me progesterone to make my period come then I took Clomid and it worked first month. I am now five weeks pregnant (and very scared) but at least it worked.
hey I am like you... we have been trying for a while and u cant help but think that you will never get pg. will start my first cycle next month and after reading these stories i am encouraged and feel lighter.{wink}
It is hopefully stop making me feel paranoid. I know they say that you need to relax so have started accupuncture that a friend recommended who used to have irregular periods.
anyway lets see what happens... will update you guys soon
Mona
I started my second cycle of clomid the two days ago. I really hope it works this time. Please keep me in your prayers. I'll keep you posted. Keep the success stories coming!
hello emm just wanted to no more bout clomid... does it realy work, can u get pregnant taken them? as me an my husband hav been trying 4 a baby 4 bout a year now, and we realy want a baby... im having normal periods.
good look 2 all the women with all my love. xmwahx
I always took a while to concieve - compared to friends and family. Between 6 and 12 months. Even though I knew when I "should" have been ovulating, and timed intercourse correctly etc.
Infact, even when we tried to concieve every other day (becuase we accepted that ovulation can be unpredictable!).
On top of that I had 3 (early) miscarriages, 1 before each liveborn child.
I asked my Dr for testing after the 3rd miscarraige - and was told "we know your system works, just keep trying" and I got NO testing!
After my 3rd child, I used "Depo Provera" as a contraceptive. This gave me terrible moodswings and horrendously high blood pressure (185 over 120!!!). The nurse giving me it kept asking "Do you normally get high bloodpressure in pregnacy?" (no I didn't!), as the depo is supposed to trick your body into thinking it is already pregnant therefore preventing ovulation.
I also got oedema (severe water retention), My wedding ring which is normally loose was practically embeded in my finger!!!
Anyway, 18 months after I finished the last course of depo, we had been trying to conceive and getting nowhere. I was now 36 years old and worried that time was running out.
I approached my gp, and was told "just keep trying".
I went to see a female Gp instead, who herself had been on fertility treatment. She referred me straight away to a fertility clinic.
At the fertility clinic, the did no tests to find out why I was infertile, instead they started me on Chlomid.
After my first month on chlomid, I was scanned to check I was not producing too many eggs. I was mortified to find it had not worked - I had produced NO EGGS that month at all!
They doubled the dose up to 100mg, and scanned me again the following month - I was so elated that I had produced TWO EGGS! .
I had a quick chat with the nurse before I left, saying "It's one thing me getting pregnant - but how do I stay pregnant" (referring to my miscarriages).
I was given a prescription of progesterone pessaries to use the week following ovulation (and the week before my next period would be due). I was also advised to take a baby aspirin per day, because I'd had no testing for the miscarriages, and she said it certainly wouldn't do any harm - but research had shown it did help a lot of women.
I was amazed that a "first response" pregnancy test taken 9 days after ovulation (and a whole WEEK before my period was due!) showed POSITIVE!
It's been stressful, as I've had spotting - but I have ONE baby growing now (was hopeful of twins but that was not to be - am just thankful to be pregnant at all!), and there is no obvious cause for the spotting.
I'm still on the aspirin and progesterone. I'm 14 weeks tomorrow!
Chlomid corrects MANY different problems surrounding conception (from simply not producing eggs, to making sure the eggs you produce are ripe enough for succesful fertilization, and correcting horomone problems such as "luteal phase defects".)
It really is a "wonder-drug" and works for MANY women!
MQqueen, You usually take the clomid starting on day 2 or 3 of your period, for 5 days, you would expect to ovulate around day 14.
I think some people get them from their GP - but then your gp is only guessing what your "working dose" of chlomid is..... so you could be taking 50mg, and it might not work for you - or you could be "sensitive" to it, and produce 5 or more eggs - which is not good - because a multiple pregancy of that nature might have a low success rate!
It's best to get reffered to an NHS fertility clinic, where they are able to monitor the effect of the chlomid, by scanning your ovaries around day 12 of your cycle, to see if it's working at that dose for you - and check you're not producing too many eggs (in which case they can increase or lower your dose).
My first round on 50mg did not work AT ALL! I did a 2nd round on 100mg, and produced two eggs (which was good!), so I had the possibility to have twins, but infact only one egg was fertilized and "took" - so I have a singular pregnancy - and MIL will never guess I had fertility help to produce my 4th child!!!
thnx 4 ur reply 'Didylicious' u really helped becoz i dint no much bout clomid, just heard about them 4rm the internet.
i will tell my doc to refer me to 'NHS fertility clinic'
becoz its been almost a year me an my hubi been trying 4 a baby.... and nothing is happening, i have been to see my doc about it, he sent me 4 a blood tase, and il be going bak 2 se him nexy week and i will menchen to refer me.
hey i went 2 see my doc.. told him bout clomid, he said its not to make someone pregnant, its 4 women who dont hav regular periods an that dont ovulate, i did get quite sad wen i heard that because after reading all the positive stories on the internet i thought if i would take them i would get pregnant... because i only heard bout clomid on the internet did now nothing bout them b4. anyway he has referred me though to the 'NHS fertility clinic' just waiting 4 my appoinment to come.
Hey MQueen, don't know if this will help you or just frustrate you more, but I have always had 28 day regular periods (for 15 years!) and my GP happily prescribed me Clomid, which I took for 5 cycles before BFP.
My understanding is that Clomid also ensures that you eggs are mature enough to be fertilised, and can help you to produce more than one egg per cycle, thus increasing your chances, NOT just to regularise things.
I went to the fertility clinic about the time I was on my fourth cycle of clomid. The specialist was also supportive of me taking Clomid and said they would have put me on it for 6 months before doing anything else (because at that stage my infertility was unexplained). Keep your chin up and good luck.
I had Clomid for a couple of months after a PCOS diagnosis. It did work though I didn't get pregnant - but did get pregnant a couple of months later. I'd seen a nutritionist and went on a low GI diet which I am convinced really helped to get my cycles more regular again.
I have PCOS, tried to get pregnant with middle child for about a year, succeeded on second cycle of clomid and dc now 3. Other children conceived naturally and straight away.
Hi. Had a lap and dye, ovarian drilling and scars removed from my tubes in may. Took Clomid from day 2 -6 on first cycle and caught first time! Am now 33 weeks and counting down the days to meet my wonderful miracle baby. Good luck and keep us posted.
I am on my third cycle of clomid and extremely frustrated. I really like hearing success stories. Keep them coming. Is three months a long time to be on clomid?
i took clomid in 2003 and after one course i got pregnant, so i am now trying again just started taking my second course as my first lot did not workbut i thought i was as i got a few pregnancy sytoms such as nausea, sore breasts and going to the toilet alot. hopefully it will happen this time.
Clomid works, but give it a chance. I was diagnosed with PCOS at 18 due to periods only coming twice a year, then was on pill until 2.5 years ago. Came off pill, no periods (surprise)and after 6 months went on Metformin which did nothing. Then had 6 months of Clomid which also did nothing. Then had ovarian drilling etc which did (surprise) nothing, then another 3 months back on Clomid and conceived on the very last try. Went for 12 week scan on day I was supposed to begin IVF. Moral of the (success) story: it doesn't work for everyone straight away so don't worry.
Well still no luck for me ! Because i am on 100mg now i feel like shit like i am in a day dream most off the time so weird !!blush any one have ant tips for me ?? hmm
I have been TTC for over a yr. I have been told after loads of tests I have PCOS. The fertility nurse gave me 50mg of clomid days 2-6. not sucsesfull, scan showed 4 small follicles at 9mm. So I have been told to take 100mg starting march if I get AF. If not to take Provera for 7 days to bring 1 on. Then days 2-6 again. Im looking to here any 1 eles storys if similer to mine. Need some hope, going mad!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanx.
I can't tell u how good it is to read these success stories, thank you all so much. Im 27 & have been ttc for 2 years now, i must say i never thought it would upset me as much as it has. I have been diagnosed with quite severe endometriosis & am due 2 start a course of Clomid in June (have been placed back on hormonal pill until then to ease pain & try 2 give my ovaries a break so the Clomid gets the best chance of working). I have noticed many on here suffer with pcos, does anyone know of someone with my condition who has concieved after using Clomid? Good luck 2 everyone trying.xxx
glad to know dat there are so many success stories. haf been diagnosed with PCOS and is due to start my 1st course of clomid 50mgx2 tablets. hopefully it works for me.
woohoo just fot my BFP today - mothers day of all days!!! this is my 1st round of clomid after 4 years with PCOS an anovulation TTC for all those on clomid or due to start it really does work miricles i really can't believe this is really happening for me!!! never give up baby dust to you all x x x
Hi there, I have just started on my 1st cycle of Clomid in late Feb this yr and now in the 2WW. I took clomid late, started on the 7th day of my cycle which I've read wont be as effective as on the 2nd or 5th day. Anyways another big blunder is that I took double dose (100mg)on the 1st day of pill to make up for the lateness lol. But rest of the days took only 50mg. So am not hoping much this month .. but will update on my progress n hopefully will get a BFP soon! P.S. I dont have PCOS or any other major problems except that my period is sometimes 31days and sometimes 35 days(every alternate months)
hi ive just started clomid,have pcos and am not ovualating.i got preggers b4 but misscarried at 9 wks,but managed to get preggers without and medication,im 28 and had misscarrage at 18, havnt been able to concieve since, so after seen the doc's for yrs finally 2yrs ago i had a laparocy and my two tubes were blocked, i cryed for a week, though im never going to get preggers now, had op to open them, doc told me that i had healthy looking tubes and ovaries thou,op was sucessful thankgod,6 months ago went back in to the hospital to see if my tubes were stil open and when they put the dye up i got a really bad pain, the xray showed up that one tube was open and the other one he put a question mark on it, he think maybe it went into spasm? the doc thinks when i misscarried my tubes formed scar tissue which then lead to blockage,im am praying i get preggers with the clomid,its just so hard to stay positive when you've had nothing but bad luck,
hi does anyone get sore breasts after taking clomid . i took clomid on the 21st feb for 5 days and have started with sore breasts and going to toilet alot. please let me know

Hi everyone, im new to this site and would love any feedback from anyone who has been or whos in a similar situation. Im 38 yrs old and have taken 6 mths of clomid, 3 x 50mgs and 3 x 100mgs, to no avail. My doc says im ovulating now due to the tabs but have to stay a month free off clomid until i have my scan check on my ovaries to see if alls ok. Will i get more tablets? Im wondering if i'l ever fall pregnant as i had endometriosis removed 2 yrs ago.
hi babyandrea... i hv no idea on that... but im sure someone from my chatmate in www.pregnancy-info.net/QA/answer-clomid would know some infor about that... i too just joined and they posted a lot about this topic (clomid)... c you there
Hi, I had unexplained infertility after having 3 kids. They never tried to find out the problem - but due to my age (36) I was referred to a fertility clinic who just started me on chlomid. The first month I took 50mg - when they scanned my ovaries to see if it was working there had been no reponse. The 2nd month - I took a 100mg dose - and when they scanned my ovaries I was producing two eggs. Happily that very month (having followed the clinics advice to "get as much sperm up there as possible" in the next few days - I found myself pregnant (test showed positive just 9 days later)!!! I am now 37 weeks pregnant with my first ever boy (other kids all girls)...I's so excited. It's not been the easiest of pregnancies with "unexplained" spotting throughout - but it's been successful which is the important thing. Oh, and despite there having been 2 eggs - there is only the one baby - which is great - not sure how we'd have managed with twins!!! [hmmm]
Dear friend of mine tried for 5 years, was prescribed Clomid, is now the proud mother of a 1 year old son. She only took 2 months on Clomid to conceive - it was unexplained fertility in her case, too. She was so low just before she conceived, I think the "unexplained" part made her feel worse. Now she's loving being a Mum and planning #2!
Hi all, it was great reading all the stories above, good luck to those of you who are still trying and congratulations to those of you who have concieved. Me and my partner have been trying for almost a year now with no luck. We have had all the necessary tests (lap and dye) etc which all came back with perfectly normal results. I have now been put on clomid 50mg for 3 months and start my course in about ten days. We hope all goes well and will keep you updated on any progress....x
Hi all, very new to this and very pleased to find this site! I think I've found out more reading this than through trawling the net...... Came off the pill last August and finally plucked up the courage to go to the doctor 2 weeks ago - had the blood tests and found out I'm not ovulating at all, hence the Clomid, which I start next week.
Very nervous but very excited.
Will be keeping close to this site from now on, its really good to have another avenue to find out information and hear good stories!
Hi all, im currently taking metformin 1700mg and ive been on two cycles of clomid with no luck. Can someone tell me from their own experiences how many months its taken them on clomid before they've conceived?? We've been trying for 2.5 years miscarried 1.5 yrs ago....since then no luck!!
hello everyone, I have never gotten pregnant since I had my daughter 12 years ago, for 12 years no birth control but never able to conceive. I was diagnosed in october 2007 with sub fertility,partner sperm came back normal. March 2007 I had a lap & dye test which came back slight endometriosis plus my left ovary was adherent to my left fallopian tube, the dye didn't spill through my tubes at first but with force it did, started first round of clomid 50mg on my next menstrual cycle and yay I'm now 9 weeks pregnant!! To help me conceive I used clear blue fertility monitor and pre-seed lubricant. Never give up ..Goodluck
hello every one,im new to this site but im after reading all yo stories,in filled with hope.my partener and i have been trying for a baby for two and half years but no success yet,i have P0LYSISTIC OVARIES. im on clomid at the moment,started 26,may 08 tested on day 7,8 and 9 and was ovulating.made lots of love but no baby yet.on 17 june i started my period again.was shocked as it came so early,im not sure if dats a good thing but im taking my second round of clomid now.infact today was my last day.Does clomid make yo periods come earlier than yo normal days? please some one reply me as im sooo worried and i will keep u all in my prayers.
I was on clomid for 3 months x 50mg, but conceived on the forth month (when I was not taking clomid) then unfortunately had a miscarriage at 8 weeks. The consultant has advised me that because I conceived on the month that I was not taking clomid that I can conceived naturally, so I have to try again naturally for a couple of months, with the usualy blood tests on day 21. Has anyone else had any experience of this ? I am very anxious to conceive again quite quickly as I have been trying for 2 1/2 years.
I tried one cycle of clomid recommended by my private fertility consultant but it didn't work for me as whilst I produced 3 eggs the endometrium didn't grow so implantation would not have been possible. Apparently this is a common problem with clomid.
We then changed to a different clinic who don't use clomid at all for this reason, and use tamoxifen instead as it has the same effect for ovulation but also stimulates the endometrium so that it is more receptive to implantaion than normal.
We conceived on our third cycle and I am now 23 weeks
Hi everyone,this is my first time on here..not used to all the lingo so i apologise if i go on.. Me and my husband have been trying for a baby for about 14 months now,after all the tests come back ok(have no blockages,damage ect)my gyn thinks that the problem lies with me not ovulating..been having v irregular periods 90 day cycles and day 21 progesterone came back a 1.1!so really hoping the clomid he's given me will work. Have had to have provera to give me a period so can get started..take the last pill tommorrow so hope period will arrive soon,have been spotting a little so been bit confused as to whether i should stop provera and start clomid but am sitting it out,hoping a 'proper'period will come in next few days.. Its been a real help reading all your stories..thankyou
Well the provera worked a treat..had my period day after the last pill and i take my last 50mg of clomid today for this cycle....am keeping fingers crossed,trying not get to excited but feel really positive,which has got to be a good thing..right?
Me, three times. Took about 12 months worth the first time (miscarried that baby, but nothing to do with the Clomid), another 3 or 4 months + IUI the second time and another 6 months worth the 3rd time. Far more than you're supposed to take, but when the alternatives are much more invasive treatments like IUI or IVF, I reckon the possible risks of too much Clomid look much better.
i am on my first cycle of clomid, also unexplained infertility. This site has given me hope that it is possible to fall pregnant this cycle, 1 week lft before i can start testing. I was on 50mg, days 5-9. usually a 30 day cycle, but ovulated on day 13-14 so guessing its regulated my cycle back to lovely 28 day. I conceived naturally in 2002, and without even trying, but miscarried at 30 weeks. Was so traumatic. Its been almost 6 years, im ready to try again.*baby dust to everyone*
On 2nd month of Clomid, levels went from 4 in June to 41 in July so moving in the right direction but doctor wants a higher reading to make sure ovulation is definitely happening. Off on holiday and don't intend to spend much time outside of the bedroom! Stay positive, I was convinced that Clomid hadn't worked for me in the first month.......
Hi everyone, We've been trying for 2 years (both have kids from prev relationships) finished 2nd round of 50mg clomid and fould out saturday that i'm finally pregnant!!! I was really giving up hope as well and feeling v down about it. Only very early yet tho. don't actually feel pregant or anything yet! baby dust to you all xxx
HI everyone, i'd just like to say that after trying for a full year to conceive went to consultant who following 21day progesterone test discovered i was not ovulating, he prescribed clomid for three months had 21 day progesterone tests during this time which showed ovulation kick started and conceived on fourth month DD 15mths and am 21 weeks pregnant all by myself with help of hubby of course!
OMG YAY!!!! I was trying to concieve for three years i was put on my first round of clomid 50mg on days 5-9 of my period.. AND IM PREGNANT!!! Ive been on here talking talking to women with the same issues and i thought that i finally lost hope..my neighbour thats a nurse made me take the test because she was convinced!!! ALL i have to say is good luck to everyone out there because its when you least expect it, it will happen. the more you stress and worry about it..the harder its going to get for you! BABY DUST TO ALL!!! Due in APRIL!!!!!!!!
Hi all, congrats to you all who have concieved recently. Im really happy for you guys! Well done! I am now on my 3rd round of clomid. Lets see if it works!
Hi Girls, I'm new to all this so I hope you don't mind me joining the thread! My partner and I have been trying to concieve for 2 years. I have one Polycystic ovary and one multicystic ovary. I began taking clomid the last week in July and I am currently on CD13, had a scan on CD11 and had an 11mm follicle. I hope this means I will ovulate this month. I'm going for another scan tomorrow...I hope everything is going to plan? It's great to see all these success stories. Congrats to you all...Does anyone have any advice they could offer me?
hiya baby hopes, Just so you know this thread isnt really used as much as the other one. Google 'clomid success stories' and its the thread that natty started that wee all on, which is the 2nd one that will show up on google search. You will see posting there every week, rather than this one which i dont think is used much anymore apart from the odd message. Were all on there daily so you will have plenty of us to talk to.
I am now on my 3rd round of clomid and on day 12. I have unexplained inertility and hae been put on 6 ronds of 50mg. Its good to see that you had a 11mm follicle after taking it the first time, some dont get that at all So think positive and the more this clomid kicks in the more it will startworking and showing i guess. Good luck to you. See you on our other thread. TC.
Just found this thread and thought I would let you know my story.
I was diagnosed with PCOS and prescribed 50mg Clomid to help me TTC. 50mg was ineffective so was then prescribed 100mg which I took for a further 5 months.
After an emotional visit to the consultant it was agreed that I would be referred for IVF.
I know it is a very negative thing to do but emotionally I gave up and to my suprise found out I was pregnant!!!
Prescribed 50mg as had irregular cycles due to PCOS. Utterly convinced the first cycle hadn't even made me ovulate... but it had and last week I got a positive result on a pregnancy test.
My friend also got lucky on her first attempt with Clomid.
I was given clomid as I had a 21 day cycle and was not ovulating, have also suffered with endometriosis for years. We managed to conceive on our 6th month, but sadly had a miscarriage at 6 wks. However, went back on clomid and was pregnant again 2 months later. Am now 22 wks and all seems well. I possibly wouldn't build up hopes of it working first time but perservere and hopefully it will happen, we went from trying for over 2 years with no results to getting pregnant twice in 3 months with the help of Clomid Fingers crossed and good luck.
This is my first message i am 25 and have been trying for 4 years to concieve i had a miscarriage 2 and 1/2 yrs ago and since then last year have been diagnosed with pcos my specialist has given me clomid and i have taken clomid for the first time and since then i have had some brown discharge has anyone experienced this whilst taking clomid and some success stories would be nice?
Hi all, Am new to this, been trying for a year and am on my second round of clomid. Had the hot flushes and headaches first time round but have not been asked to be monitored, should I be? Finding it hard to deal with the disappointment and am too impatient, am 37 next birthday so the positive stories from older mumsare helping. Good luck to everyone!
