Success after IF

200 mg Clomid=raging lunatic

Goodness gracious, I have been such a b!tch lately! Especially to my husband, poor guy. Let's just say I don't blame him if he wants to walk out the door to blow off some steam because I am a lot to handle right now. And even though this is my 4th cycle of Clomid (but 3rd cycle TTC #2), I have finally experienced those hot flashes that people keep talking about. Last night I woke up so hot, I slept all throughout the night without any blankets on.

Thankfully, tomorrow is my last Clomid day and my first u/s is on Monday. 

I hope this will all be worth it and I'll see some good follies next week! I keep telling myself that I have to respond to it. I'm doing everything right: no caffeine, eating better, double the dosage from last time, less stressed, good AFC on cd 3. It just has to work, right?

I guess time will tell.Tongue Tied

  • ugh!  i'm so sorry!  I didn't have any symptoms the first 4 cycles and they suddenly all hit me the last two...I'm dreading starting up again in a few days!  luckily, the medicene gets out of your system quickly and the symptoms stopped for me within a day of taking the last pill...I hope it works the same for you!!  Good luck sweetie!!  I have a good feeling that you are going to be ktfu very soon!

  • Ugh, I remember that well.  I actually had some visual disturbances on 200mg.  Good luck, hopefully it'll be worth it.

  • Mouseygail-Thanks so much! I sure hope so.

    Are you doing Clomid as well or something else?

    KYRN-I've read about this and it sounds so scary. Thankfully I haven't experienced that. ::knock on wood::

    Like I said though, this is definitely my last cycle on Clomid whether or not I respond. After this, it's on to injectibles. Woot?

      just clomid/TI plus crinone to lengthen my LP.  If this doesn't work in a few cycles, I guess I will head back to my RE :(

  • Wow, I had the clomid crazies from 50mg, I cannot imagine what I'd be like with 200mg. 

    Hope this will be your last cycle on it and then you can be crazy from the pregnancy hormones ; )

    Injectibles are so much easier on you mentally (though it's not fun either...) but hopefully you'll never know.

  • No fun!  I was a crazy person on clomid too.

    I hope this is your lucky cycle.  However in the event you do need to move on to injectibles, I had no side effects at all on them, it was like a walk in the park if you don't count having to stick yourself. :)

    Yeah my RE explained that Clomid tells the brain to tell the body to ovulate, hence the s/e. Whereas, injectibles affect just the ovaries, so there are usually no s/e. But man, I'm worried about cost so praying/hoping this cycle works!
