First clomid cycle = BFN

hootie123

My first clomid cycle was a bust!  AF showed on Thanksgiving morning.  But I am actually not at all upset and and I excited to give it another try next month.   I responded well to 50mg - so I'll be doing that again this cycle.  It's nice to know that I actually ovulated.   The worst part is that this is my first real period since I wasn't ovulating before - they were really light - and just let me say that this one sucks!

So on to round 2 - I should know by Christmas day if this cycle works!

GL next cycle.  Way to keep posiyive for next cycle.  I also noticed a change in my flow when I started clomid, they were a bit heavier and more painful.

Mrs*MichelleB:

It's nice to hear you are staying positive. Best of luck with this cycle.

Would you mind sharing any other side effects besides the heavy period? I know you said it well, but was there anything else you noticed different? I'm waiting on my test results and my doctor did mention the Clomid as a possibility if necessary.... just curious.

I didn't notice any side effects from the clomid while I was taking it - but many people get hot flashes.   The metformin upset my stomach - but I seem to be getting used to it now.    But the clomid really worked - the cycle where I was getting tested my CD 21 progesterone was 1.2 (meaning I didn't ovulate) and on clomid my progesterone was 17 (meaning that I did ovulate).  

GL to you too!

Sorry to hear this cycle ended in a BFN, but you're right, it's great that you are ovulating. Good luck this upcoming cycle.

Sorry to hear.  But I love your attitude, and I'm wishing you a lot of luck with your next cycle.

Mrs. Stephan 2 you

Hi there,

 

I have PCOS, I am 27 years old and took 6 round of clomid starting with 50mg-100 mg, then I stopped taking and 3 months later got pregnant. Good Luck!! Don't give up but my advice, relax don't think about it and it will happen.
