Hi all..
I am on clomid & have been so 4 the last 12 months (this is my last cycle using it).
I am due back 2 see my Gyn at the hospital on the 1st April.
Intialy before i first started clomid, i had all the usual 21day progestoron blood tests, scans & i also had a Lap/Dye test. The Lap-dye test showed i had a blocked left tube which was due from scarring from a previous eptopic tubal pregnancy. I had my left tube removed. The hospital/Gyn then told me,that as i do not overlate every month i will be put on clomid. i started to take the clomid of which i was perscribed 50mg (days2-6)& a supply of 6 cycles worth. I was also told i would recieve a further apptment near the end of the next 6 cycles. 6 cycles passed,still no pregnancy & i attended the arranged apptment as planned. The Gyno prescribed me a further 6 mths/cycles worth & said it is only at this stage they do follicle tracking. I went for follicle tracking, everything was fine & the nurse said ther was no need 2 come back for more as i dont need to & i should just go see the Gyno at my next arranged apptment. I am now on my last cycle of clomid. Now every month so far has been more or less the same whilst on clomid apart from this last cycle. I started to notice brownish discharge around day 16 of my cycl & the spotting has not stopped (i saw it again 2day),i am now on 25th day of my cycle. My cycles vary in lenghth & i usualy start my period between days 26-32 & it can happen on either one of these days. Also i have been overlating from my left overy & this month i had pain in both overys indicating i either released from my right overy(which never happens) or i released from both sides. I also dont usualy have mucus at all throught the 12mths i hav used clomid & i had only discovered Pre-seed lub last month & i actualy used it this month for the 1st time,so i was also woundering if that could be the reason the brown muscus keeps showing daily???? I dont understand it & i am going out of my mind thinking about it & my apptment is not untill the 1st of april. Does or has anyone suffered from cancer before or could this just be normal?. I am so so so so worried & clomid i hav read on the internet should not really be prescribed for longer than 6months.
I am on the NHS & surely they wouldnt prescribe something for that long if they believed it to be dangerous??????

I almost forget to say.. on this cycle i have had pain around & near overys which has happended not only at overlation time but also up 2 now. 2day i went for a walk & it felt like somthing was inside my lower stomach & everytime i took a step it hurt/ached. & i also have had a big lump in the side of my right breast for the last few days but now seems to be shrinking thank god. years ago wen i was pregnant (miscarried,i do not have any children)i had the same lump senerio & i can remember the doctor telling me it was hormonal related, funny thing was it was about 2/3weeks later that i found out i was pregnant,i or the doctor just didnt catch on to it,as i had no symtoms & i totaly so busy that i failed to relise i had missed periods.

Hi

I know of at least two people that have been on clomid for 12 months. So I don't think it's used just for 6 months.
I would telephone your clinic/consultants sec and explain you are worried about some of the side effects your getting and ask for some reassurance. I took clomid for 3 months whilst doing iui and saw some different changes to my cycle including more pains.
In regards to your breasts I would book into see your gp and just confirm the lump is not anything to worry about. I went to my gp and she said I had lumpy breasts but the lump was not indicitive to anything cancerous.
Good luck with everything xx
