Really? I did injects too (plus Clomid) and I'm not clotting. Granted some of my flow is ummmm thicker? But not clots.
Kelly--did you ONLY do injects?
Yep, just Follistim. I can't remember the number on the day of IUI, but my lining was crazy thick. Add Ovidrel and Prometrium on top of that, and you're probably headed for a nasty period. Maybe the addition of the Clomid kept your lining from getting that crazy...
And it was crazy this morning. I normally have 1-2 days of spotting before full flow. Not this time. Nope. Had to ruin my favorite "cherry" undies.

I'm sorry you're birthing clots.
I agree that it's gross! It makes me kinda sad to think that it's a s/e off the meds since I already birth clots without meds...
Dx PCOS (June 2006, re-confirmed March 2012), Anemia (May 2010-Still fighting to correct it), Fibromyalgia (May 2011)
Initial b/w - normal
HSG (March 2012) revealed right tube open and looking great. Left tube deformed with hydrosalpinx.
Lap (April 2012) Removal of left fallopian tube. Right tube open and viable, but "rather enlarged." NO evidence of endometriosis...Uterus looks beautiful and "very capable" of carrying a pregnancy!

With all factors taken into account, RE is recommending IVF. Planning on moving forward with treatment as a single woman using DS by Summer 2013.

Oh gosh, I am so sorry. After my lap and hysteroscopy I had awful bleeding and huge clots, which I've never had before-I have a super thin lining and pretty nonexistent periods- and it seriously FREAKED me out. I kept calling my nurse to make sure I wasn't bleeding to death or something.
Hang in there, hopefully it will stop soon. I'm so sorry you have to deal with this, it sucks!!

I hope this goes away soon and you were able to catch a little rest last night!
