Hi

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.

Many thanks

Hi Haylz,
This will be my first cycle so I am stepping into the unknown a bit. I am on 50mg at the moment but my gyno said that in his clinic they dont go above 100mg and he will only give me 6 months before IVF,. Really hoping it doesnt come to that though.
One Q: if you dont ovulate on clomid do you need to take provera again to get a bleed before you can take it again?
Good luck for you today, I will keep fingers crossed.

hi haylz
i do have facebook on the name of hadasraya which is my email [email protected] and my msm is [email protected]
about you question of taken provera i think it is neccessary to take provera as aresult if you don't have regular period. for example i had a phone call yesterday afternoon from my doctor she ask me to pop to the clinic to collect prescription provera and metforim because the blood result show i am not ovulating. so i have to take provera to get bleeding and start injection. please pray for me and i will certainly pray for every one who is suffering. hope to hear from you soon.

haylz · 05/11/2008 22:01

hi girls
i have always had irregular periods but never bn given provera. i have bn on metformin since the age of 17 wen i found out i had pcos its suppose 2 induce the bleed but never wrked 4 me and still dont. hopefulstar; i think ur doc would have told u if he was gonna give u provera but alot dont give it they jus make the waiting harder.

hopefulstar · 06/11/2008 13:16

Hi everyone,
Thanks for your advice. Hopefully if we all keep our prayers coming then we will get our dreams fulfilled.
I am taking provera at the moment...3rd month of it and I hate it...it makes me feel really sick and very teary. I start clomid next week and was hoping that it would mean the end of taking provera...maybe not though.
Good luck to you all. xx

haylz · 06/11/2008 16:45

hi hopefulstar
i dont no anything bout provera but i no clomid gives u them side effects 2 cause wen i finished my 5 days i jus wanna cry all time. silly init lol no sign of af yet so will test on wkend. doubt i am tho cause i always av long cycles.
keep ur chin up girls we will get there xxx

ttc458 · 09/11/2008 14:23

Hi Haylz,
I am on my 4th day of provera (first time) and my last day of taking it is tomorrow. It makes me feel dizzy, emotional, and yes sometimes nausea! Its not the best thing at all, but I hope my period comes soon after, as I then need to start taking 50mg clomid on CD 2-6 and pray or the best!
I am 20 years old, DH 27years old, been together 5 years, married 3 1/2.
Been trying to conceive for 3 years, Dr thinks I have PCOS due to irregular periods, etc, but has not diagnosed me with it as such.
I pray for everyone who wants to be blessed with a child.
Good Luck to all xxxxxx I will keep you all posted!
HAYLZ, pleasekeep me posted too, as we are seem to be in line with each other - what day of provera are you on?

haylz · 09/11/2008 21:38

hi ttc458
i dont take provera hun never have thats y i dont no anything bout it.
im on day 32 now dun a test its neg so goona wait till middle of week now and do another if af still aint appeared. will let u all no.
good luck girls xxxx

hopefulstar · 10/11/2008 09:46

Hi ttc458,
I am on provera...finished my 5th day yesterday and will get my period on friday..well that is how it has been for the last few months that I have been taking it. I will also be taking my first round of clomid on days 2 to 6 so we will be starting it at the same time.
Good luck, fingers crossed it works for us.
Did your doctor not send you for any tests to check your tubes or anything before they put you on clomid?

Haylz, so sorry to hear that the test was negative...it might have been too soon to test.

I pray we all get some good news soon. xx

haylz · 10/11/2008 13:00

hi hopfulstar
i am hoping that it was 2 soon but i have had a bad stomach most of the day 2day so i think she is on her way. nothing we can do is it hun. does this provera rele wrk then cause my cycles are always between 35-40 days.
baby dust 2 u all ***

hopefulstar · 10/11/2008 13:10

Hi Haylz,
We do find ourselves in a horrible place and it is so unfair. I hope and pray that the tummy ache you are feeling is not af and something else.
Provera works for me in that it makes me have a bleed and so far I have been able to time when it is. The problem with me is that without taking it I dont have a period at all so I dont know if it would be anything that would help you or not...might be worth asking the gyno.
Were you ovulating at all before you took clomid? I am not ovulating at all so have zero chance of getting pregnant at the moment...really hoping that clomid will make me ovulate...
I am also having acupuncture which I find brilliant...it might be worth a try if you havent tried it yet...apart from anything else it relaxes you.
Good luck hon x

Lolalupo · 10/11/2008 14:08

Hello everyone,

I have been reading your forum for a month or so now and have only just plucked up the courage to post something!! I already have a ds(18)from a previous relationship and have decided that (madly) I would like another child with my dh. I had a miscarriage last year and have now found out that I'm not ovulating. Have had one course of 50mg Clomid and have just been for my 21 day blood tests last Wed but was bleeding last night . Can I ask? When should I take my second course of tablets - tonight or tomorrow?

hopefulstar · 10/11/2008 14:26

Hi lolalupo,
Sorry to hear about your miscarriage.
Hopefully clomid will be good for you. Did your doc tell you what days you should take the tablets? mine said days 2 to 6 but some others are 3 to 7 or 5 to 9...not sure why they are different.
Did you have periods before you took clomid?

Lolalupo · 10/11/2008 15:08

Hello there,

Yes he told me to take days 2-6 and yes I did have periods but they were totally out of whack.

zem · 10/11/2008 16:04

magnummum · 12/11/2008 17:48

Posted last month to say pregnant with number 2 after 6 cycles of clomid. Found out yesterday it's twins so yes Clomid can be very successful!

Katielou99 · 12/11/2008 20:38

Hello All

I took my first round of clomid last month - had scan and the docs said i had a folicle of 10 mm and another one of 18mm which is ok. My 21 day bloods also said i had ovulated and the level was 61.5.

So my hopes were up but then had my period 3 days late (which is good for me - i normally am 2 1/2 weeks late)

I felt a lttile confused because i really thought that the clomid had worked.
I have just finished taking my 2nd lot and the docs kept me on 50mg. So it must be doing somethin good.

Anyone had similar story or does anyone have advice for me.

Baby dust to each and every one xx

hopefulstar · 13/11/2008 09:49

Hi Katielou99
that is great news that you ovulated on your first round. I hope it works for me too.
Did you use the predictor kits to see when yuor most fertile time was? that might help.

Congrats to magnummum...that is wonderful news. I would love twins...still at the moment just one healthy baby would be a miracle.

Haylz I hope you are feeling better. Good luck with the next round of clomid.

I start my first round soon and am going on hols to try and chill out. Catch up soon and good luck to everyone xx

haylz · 13/11/2008 12:43

congrats magnummun thats brill x
katielou99 that gd news hun iv done 6 months of clomid and my highest blood level was 37.5 which was last month. but i hope round 7 will do it 4 me now.
hi hopefulstar
i am feeling loads beta thx chic hope u r 2.
wats them predictor kits 4 then. 2 see if u have ova is it. cause if u have pcos like me opk dont wrk cause of the amount of LH and insulin our bodies do produce.
keep everything crossed 4 each and every1 of u girls xx

sarashy · 13/11/2008 18:29

yeah!!!!! finally i have my clomid. rang and rang and rang the secretary of my consultant so much so i think she did it to get me off her back. Was slightly gutted though as the first chemist i took it too said they couldnt read it and i had to go bk to the hospital was not happy. But all sorted now, just took it to another chemist.
So just got to wait for af now then i can start taking it. Although it not to turn up and me be pg would be better. Af due tomorrow then due to start first clomid sat. anyone on same day would love some support.
Also any advice on taking it in the morning or at night? which is best?
hope everyones ok n keeping their head up.
fingers crossed and baby dust to all.

hi girls have not been on here for quite a while but i feel the need to share with you whats been going on over the lats few weeks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i have taken my second round of clomid and had day 21 bloods only to find out i didnt ovulate ! gutted is an understatment as im sure many of you understand.
finally managed to speak to my consultant who told nme to wait for next period so i could begin taking 3rd round of clomid.

4 weeks later still no bloody af and i was so frustrated!spoke to consultant again who pressribed provera to bring on period. over week later still no period so decided to do pregnancy test today end it was POSITIVE. im sooooo happy. ive done two to be sure and both the same.( think i will do one more in morning as you do !)

will keep you all informed of my progress so chin up girls there is light at the end of that very dark long tunnel.xxxxxxxxxxx
