I was on Clomid days 3-7. Last pill was on Saturday. I felt fine while taking it and today I feel terrible. Are side effects after the fact normal? I am so bloated and peeing every 40 minutes. I am being monitored but my next u/s appointment isn't until Wednesday. Should I move up my appointment or is this normal? TIA

The bloated part is absolutely normal. I felt like my ovaries and my entire abdomen were sore and it got worse as my cycle progressed. I felt like that meant the meds were working. I've never heard of needing to pee alot from Clomid but maybe some of the other ladies can chime in. I felt like all my side affects were gone by the time AF came.

This, I was CD4-8, but that doesn't matter much. The bloating may just make you feel like you need to pee more often.
I was bloated for a while afterwards, too. I think my rings and shoes were tight, too. It probably wouldn't hurt to call your doctor or nurse if you're still concerned, though.
All of this sounds totally normal to me. Well, except maybe for the peeing part but I agree with PP that maybe the bloat is making you feel the need to visit the bathroom. I personally am diabetic so I pee like once an hour anyway. But the side effects not only lasted until O and past. But the cycle after clomid - I'd had more intense O pains then normal.
This sounds pretty normal. The bloating was a big side effect I felt. My side effects only lasted until one or two days post O. I hope your appointment goes well this week.
