Hi thats it really. If there is anyone who is about to start a new cycle with clomid, can you please be my friend?
This will be my first try on clomid, I have pcos, and started af today after a horrible 48 day cycle.
But af is here, hurray! which means i can start on the magic beans tomorrow.
So if you would like chat and hand holding too, please sign in here.
Im thinking good sense of humour, sympathy, and patience will be a must

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?

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.

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.

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!

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!!

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!

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!!!

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

Lulu - sorry about AF arriving xx
