Trouble TTC

If you had side effects from Clomid

When did they start? From the first day or later on? What were they?

I'm just curious.  And I'm procrastinating because there is a pile of work sitting on my desk that I am dreading :)

Re: If you had side effects from Clomid

  • I had very very few hot flashes. Not enough to bother me though. I was on 50 mg, so maybe that's why.

    Did they start the first day you took it, or was it after a few days?

  • I finished my last clomid pill on the 20th. The only side effect I had was massive headaches starting on the last day of taking clomid and lasting for 3 days. No more symptoms so far though.

     Thumbs down for the pile of work, I work in accounting so I know how you feel!

  • I was on 50 mg days 3-7.  Hot Flashes started on the 2nd or third night of taking the 50mg.  The first month I had a debilitating migraine that started the day I took the last pill and then lessened the next day.  I do not usually have migraines and did not have that side effect the next month.  The first month I O'd late by 4 days, but by the 2nd month things were back to normal.  I suspect that my MC was due to a too thin lining from Clomid this last time, but that could be bunk.  My Dr. only looked at follies, not lining thickness.  Yes, I am now moving onto someone else with different methods and a totally different protocol for me.  It no longer seems that getting pg. is my problem, rather staying that way!

  • Both times I took clomid I got mild headache's a few days after taking my last pill. I also got hot flashes in my sleep during and for a few days after. Not sure if this is even a known side effects but I peed a lot more while taking clomid especially at night.

     

    I'm procrastinating too. ;0)

  • I had really bad nausea with 100mg but it didnt start until 2 weeks after my last pill.  The drug can hang around for up to 6 weeks after your last pill and so can the side effects.

  • The first day I was on 50mgs I started getting hot flashes, and the second or third day I got really, really, really bloated. The hot flashes went away as soon as I stopped taking it, and I'll let you know when the bloat goes away. (kidding, although seriously it did take me about a week to feel totally normal).

  • 50 mgs - every morning I felt hung over - headache, not appetite

    Starting the 3rd day I had hot flashes and restless sleeping (probably due to hot flashes).

    Hallelujah, it's a miracle, I have children AND a signature!

  • I was on 150 mg had headaches and severe back pain-but femara and injectables ave done the same to me despite tthe docs saying there are less side effects with femara.
  • I took 200mg and was a raging b!tch from down under.  The hot flashes and moodiness lasted for weeks after I finished the last pill (which did not cause me to ovulate).  I read somewhere online that the s/e can last 40-45 days.  100 and 150 were minor league compared to the 200 but the s/e for the lower doses stayed with me until the end of the cycle.

  • My first round I took 100mg clomid. I was dizzy and felt faint starting on day 1 but not till the end of the day. It got progressively better and ended about 7 days later. The second and third rounds of 100 I didnt have too many side effects, mostly just "spacy" or a cloudy head. I stayed that way for about a week as well. On 150 mg I had really bad hot flashes and the same cloudy, out-of-it feeling that lasted about 10 days. HTH
