Trouble TTC

Clomid and hot flashes

For those of you that were/are on Clomid, when did you have hot flashes? I was bumped up to 100mg this month and I never had any hot flashes until now. I am on CD 19 and I've had them for the last 2 days. This is the first time I've experienced them and they are driving me nuts. Anyone else have them?

Re: Clomid and hot flashes

  • Mine were off and on but got worse and more frequent each time. I was on 100mg 3 times back to back. I would feel just gross by the time I got home. GL and I hope they stop soon.

  • I took clomid for 5 cycles, and this, by far was the worst side effect.  My hot flashes started around day 2 or 3 of meds and then intermittently for the rest of the cycle.  I found mine were worse only a couple hours after I took it..for me, this was at night, bc I would take it around 9pm.  Hope it gets better for you!

  • I was on 50mg this cycle and didn't respond well - but I did have hot flashes and night sweats!  can't wait for 100mg this next cycle...

    I would say this was my most unpleasant side effect, so I guess not that bad.

    Hang in there! As bad as the hot flashes can be, the worst part for me is the intensified O pains and bloating. Bleh, none of this is fun! But hopefully it'll be worth it!!

  • The only side effect I have had is mood swings. I am on my 4th dose and this is my first round of clomid. However I did start bleeding today and I'm not sure if that is a side effect or not. I'm gonna call my doctor first thing in the morning.
