Unique Situation

Hi all, I am new to the boards.  We have been trying to conceive for 8 months.  I have some prior medical history that is adding to our problems.  I had a Pituitary tumor which resulted in possible issues with my pituitary glad not functioning properly. I do not get my period or ovulate on my own. And I never seem to have any follicles growing. :*(

I took Provera to try to get my period. but I barely got a period -less then a day (more like a few hours) and it was really nothing.  Then I did 50MG of Chlomid (hot flashed and belly ache). No follicles grew on either side.

14 days later he started me right away on Chlomid 100 (without trying to induce another period). I believe my lining is pretty small too.  Is that normal, to not try to do a period before Chlomid again?  Anyway. I am on my 3rd day and my stomach is killing me.  I've been using the bathroom all last night and this AM. 

Anyone else have these side effects?  Is this normal? 

Also, after day one of this 2nd round I got that white discharge that signals ovulation so I took an ovulation test and it said I was ovulating.  I asked my doctor and he said that sometimes they can give off false positives on ovulation test :-(.

    Hello! You may get some better advie on the TTTC board. Most of us have moved on to IVF. Suggest asking for a consultation to a reproductive endocrinologist to find out what is going on with your cycles. Good luck.
