I've been called snippy some days by friends (who don't know i'm going through this process).  I've also had days that are really great.. everything is awesome type of days.  I've also had a few 'let me crawl under a rock' days. When do the clomid crazies wear off?

  • Clomid rage is totally real, do try and not stab your SO. Clomid stays in your system 5-7 days after your last pill so in theory it could be that long before you start to feel normal again, although that has not been my experience. For me my Clomid side effects were gone by time I ovulated.

  • Mine hasn't been too bad. Last night I did cry over having a bad hair day lol but that's been it. I've been really tried though. I'm not sure if it's the tamoxifen because I've never taken that before.

    They don't wear off in my opinion. Because when they start to wear off in your system, you're either getting PMS or the start or you're at the start of your pregnancy; both = crazy hormones.

    3rd round of clomid @ 150mg + metformin
    Blood test for ovulation on 9-29
    HPT on 10-6

  • Clomid really made me feel overly emotional and sometimes unreasonably mad! Haha. I found it seemed to wear off after about 1/2-1 week after the last pill. Then I'd feel crappy for ovulation, and the impeding AF when that came.. I was just telling someone the other day, I feel that I haven't felt "normal" or "good" for months, since I did clomid x5 months, progesterone (which just makes me feel yuck), and letrozole (I've felt better this cycle than with clomid). I hope you feel better soon!
