When I was on Femara, I noticed that I got quite moody from time to time. Since my PCOS kept the normal female hormones from affecting me most of my life, I was finally able to understand why the rest of the women I knew were crazy once a month (I used to side with the men in complete puzzlement until the Femara evened me out). If you had some fairly normal cycling of your own, or have a decent amount of female hormones normally, you have to remember that the Femara is balancing out and adding to that.
I actually didn't have any side effects with femara. nbsp;Unlike Clomid, which gave me terrible hot flashes and made me broke out. nbsp;
I also had horrible side effects with Clomid. So far just the moodiness with Femara. I just bit MHs head off for hugging me. Ugh I want to be nice again. Ha!

Sorry you are feeling out of sorts on Femara, I have not taken this med but will for an upcoming IUI, I know with my last FET lupron made me feel like this but I do think, like a pp said, it's sometimes hard to know if it's IF that makes you feel moody or the meds. Hope you get to feeling better soon.

This. I was emotional but think that was more 24 7 due to IF and mc than related to femara. Nothing like the clomid crazies.
