Re: Starting Clomid

  • i just went through my first IUI w/clomid + hcg - not too bad - i had some cramping, my ovaries felt huge, but it all subsided in a few days - def worth it. don't worry you will do just fine!! good luck!

  • I've done 4 clomid cycles; they generally aren't that big of a deal.  Most people on the board would recommend that you get monitored (internal ultrasounds)--or at least understand and accept the risks.

  • I didn't have many side effects from the clomid. Felt a bit bloated and had night sweats. Other than that, I didn't have any problems. Hope it works for you!
