100mg of Clomid?

[Aworryingtrend]

Hi all

Just been told by the consultant that I should up my Clomid dosage to 100mg next month, as 2 cycles of 50mg hasn't worked. mY progesterone levels have been 2.1 and 5.3, "very low indeed" were the Consultant's words.

Did going up to 100mg work first time for anyone? Did you get (m) any side-effects?

TIA

Hello everyone!

I'm so sorry I haven't been in touch. It has been such a rollercoaster month it's unreal. But...

I GOT A BFP this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really. I really did. It was a strong line. Even DH said. Could I really be pregnant? It seems impossible after such an up and down month- at my second scan on day 14 the follicles had only grown 1mm in 2 days and they said ovulation was 'unlikely'. I had my Day 21 test on Day 24 and my progesterone was 40.6 so we knew I had ovulated, so I was over the moon. Then on Saturday (Day 28) I started to bleed and assumed it was my period coming early. It wasn't much though and stopped after an hour. Then today I took a test (day 33) adnd it was positive.

We just daren't believe it though. I am going to Boots today to stock up on the Digital bad boys. Maybe if I see it written down I'll beleive it.

hi guys I'm a newbie to clomid and thought you guys might be best to help out. So I'm supposed to start taking it on day 2 of AF. I started spotting last night but nothing significant, and nothing significant this morning either. Do you reckon I start taking it tomorrow? Or if i carried on just spotting today do I wait til it's full on for a day then take it the next? Its so confusing!

I was told to count Day 1 as your first day of bright red blood before 10am. Spotting would not count as the first day.

That's amazing news worrying that you ovulated and will have my fingers crossed for you and your BFP. It's fantastic progress xxx

Thank you so much. I did 3 digital tests last night and it was unbelievable to see the word 'pregnant'. According to the Clearblue one I am 2-3 weeks since conception! Which would mean I ovulated earlier thanI would have thought but of course it's not infallible. We have got a Doctors appointment next week, i think it will seem more real then!

great news worrying I so didn't even notice that before I posted. I'm totally single minded at the moment, so wrapped up in my own issues to notice anyone else! the joys of TTC.

and thanks for the advice.

Wow congrats aworrying thats fantastic!
