Lulu - sorry about AF arriving xx

Lulu sweetie- gutted for you, as I know how frustrated you are feeling. You know that we all love you and are here for you...pleased that you know where you are though and will hav a review at 6 month point....can't remember where I read a bout a woman who conceived on cycle 12 so all is far from lost. Sending you big hugs and virtual chocolate.

Welcome 1wish. SAd you are here, but happy to be here for you, iyswim.

Big smooches to one and all, flossie xxx

Sorry to hear about your af LuLu, mite not be a bad thing having a month off, as that seems to be the lucky month for quite a few people from what i can gather.

I don't know why im bothering wit clomid to be honest what wit dp problems as well it seems abit pointless.

Have to admitt though i love how these clomid are making me feel (except the hot flushes) feel like a new women!!!

Welcome newbies. Good to have some fresh blood (excuse the pun as don't we all want no blood....) here.

I'm afraid I have to report that AF just arrived. ARGHH. Am so gutted as hoped this cycle (4th) would be my last. Had no symptoms but still lived in hope. I'm not sure, but I may take a break from clomid this month. Am going on holiday and don't want to be in a horrid mood during such a short break and kind of want to see what the old body will do on its own. Not sure, though.

Went to the consultant on Monday who said to just keep at it and that my ridiculous 1 day AF was not a problem and hte most important thing was to have regular AF. He said try for 2 more months on clomid then we will talk about other options.

I hope everyone else has better luck than me!

Thankyou Flosspot, can i join you all? I've just kinda barged my way in anyway, sorry (It's the clomid )

Started my first clomid cycle this month (50mg) currently cd 8, and experiencing hot flushes alot, oh and nearly finished with dp last night because he wanted to watch F-word! So i think the side effects are definately starting!!

Yet to be told what my values are, despite being on Clomid for sveral months, so of no help, I'm afraid, but just wanted to welcome all newcomers, and hope you won't be staying that long!

I see what you mean. I couldn't tell you if it means pregnancy mite be likely but it would be well worth ringing your consultant and seeing what they say. Sorry not really helping hopefuly someone else will know more about it.

Just 50mg to start with. My pre-Clomid number was 35.1, so was already ovulating, but Cons reckoned 6 months on Clomid would be advisable after 2.5 years.

Hi, I'm not an expert but i believe if its above 40 it means ovulation has occured, so sounds like good news. What dosage of clomid are you on?

Hiya. I am new to this website today. I have been TTC for 2.5 years. On my first cycle of clomid. Got results today of 21 prog, and it was 88.9! This seems a high result, and wondered if it was a sign of anything?

thanks minxi for the reply and encouragement. I too would have to pay cos of my age, altho did go and see my doc about it when i was 39 but its taken this long to get appointments. Ive had tubal patency and they were clear, is that what you mean by lap and dye? Its great that you have two kids already and i really send you loads of luck for the next!

sugar...can't believe it has taken you so long to get clomid prescribed!

I am on my 4th cycle of 50mg clomid and not monitored although saw consultant last month who said yes yes keep going with it! If it doesn't work lap and dye and has already given me the details then if tubes blocked they fix that if all ok then they offer ivf but have to pay as already have ds's! Have been trying for over 2.5 years now!

good luck

hello - this is my first posting and wondering if anyone can advise me. Am 41 in September and have been trying for a couple of years. Dont have any children at moment. I've just taken one round of clomid few weeks ago 50mg and am getting period pains now so dont think its worked. But what i want to ask is should i be monitored on it, with a blood test or something to see if its working? My docs says he thinks i may have PCOS. My cycles are all varied between about 30 and 37 days. Has taken me a year on NHS to get this far. Waiting times so long in Manchester.He says i can try 6 months clomid and then i am looking at private IVF. My 3 24 day progesterone tests have all come back different,good and bad results. Feeling low,like i'll never be a mum...sure you get my drift. Anyways thank you for reading ladies x

quads.. sextuplets a whole litter of the little darlings

Twins! I'd be sorted all in one go. Of course could end up with more than twins....

just read the other thread My dr planned to up my does to 100mg for 2nd cycle. THink it makes sense tbh. (never know might end up with twins or more )

A whole cycle- apparently you can't accurately count cycle post-mc so you have to wait for first af post-mc to start counting...grrr. On advice of MNer whoo is doctor am upping dosage asap though.

ok but nervewracking. THink it is a worry from ttc to when they are adults (acutally think it probably even continues when they are adults). Scan tomorrow - nuchal fold. fingers all x'd.

Are you haveing to wait a whole cycle before clomid again?

Good Awen- getting back to it....how are things going in the baby-carrying world?

Hi Flosspot - I am still hovering around. How are you doing hun?

Where is everyone?

OK ladies- it's Tuesday, which makes it time for an update, no?

Flossie- dead cycle (apparently you can't start counting until first day of period after mc...) pg on 2nd cycle of Clomid, waiting to start third.

Awen, PCM- good to hear all is well.

Buttercup- MIL just your typical MIL. I think she lasks the tact gene. Great news about your appoinment. Full steam ahead with Clomid. Can honestly say that it's not all that bad. It hasn't affected my cycles much, but they are very long anyway. And DH swears that the mood thing is bearable- he likes to have a reason for it (ie: the drugs) rather than wondering if I have PMT....all month!

Good luck.
