Jane- I had to same problem- My periods were irregular but I got them on monthly and I do ovulate. The doctor put me on Clomid so I can predict ovulation better. The first month, my cycle was exactly 28days. This past month I was 30 days. I must have tested 10 tens to see if I was pregnant. I called the doctor and he said that it was normal. He also increased my dose to 100 mg. It was so frustrating to be late and just have to wait. Hopefully you will get a positive test- my fingers are crossed for you. ↑
hi i have been reading this forum for a little while and i am on my first month of clomid and it's day 29 and after 8 pregnancy tests nothing so far and nor period i am going to call my doctor tomrrow and see what he thinks about it. I have pcod and have been pregnant once and my water broke at 4 1/2 months and i lost her. And now i am having symptoms of being pregnant i think anyway my breast are sore and i have been going to the bathroom alot and my temp has been up to 99 for almost a week i'm just frusterated and hope that i am not making up symptoms or that these symptoms could be due to the clomid. Anyone have any ideas? ↑
HI everyone! I have been reading the forum for just over two mths now. I am on my second round of Clomid 50mg & getting anxious! I have read so many different thing about what days to take Clomid & what days I should O. Doctors office advised days 5-9 & 12-14 for O. Am I the only one taking it on these days? I read that taking Clomid earlier in the cycle, days 1 or 2, increases the chances of pregnancy. I am also having long cycles 30-35 days. Prior to this I was on the pill for 9 years due to severe cramping & had reg cycles. The last year or so I was on the pill 365 days & I wasn't having a cycle due to endometriosis. Is this normal on Clomid? Does anyone have any advise? I am xxx my fingers that it works this month! ↑
Hi everyone! Well, I just ovulated a few days ago. Now I have to wait those 2 torturous weeks to find out if "it" worked. This is my 3rd month of clomid. I am praying that this is it! I'll keep you posted...Jane...what is going on with you? Did you test on day 35? ↑
hi everyone!!!!! im new...
i've just finished my first round of clomid on thursday.
had period on 26 of march and took the clomid on the 27......
my doctor told me to take the clomid on day2-day6 of my cycle. but im just wondering when is the best time to have Sxx (if you know what i mean.....) coz, honestly i haven't got a clue. shall i buy an opk?
my doctor also ask me to contact the clinic when my periods starts so they can arrange a follicle tracking scan on day 12 of my cycle.anybody knows what a follicle scan is?
me too is very desperate for a baby been married for 3 years without progress thats why me and my husband decided to see a doctor.
i just keep praying to god and hoping it will happen soon...pls keep in touch guys...thank you. ↑
Hi! I was on clomid for 4 months. Nothing happened. Then on my 4th month of clomid I found out I was pregnant with triplets! After a hard pregnancy, I now have 3 beautiful girls. Multiple births do happen on clomid! ↑
It's been a week since I took my last pill and lately it really hurts to have sex with my husband. I don't know what is going on. I'm getting hot flashes still and I don't know if I oed yet. So confused? ↑
febuary i took prometrium to bring and my period which it did i also was on clomid through day 4-9 i didnt ovulate so i was put on provera to bring on my period but this time it didnt work. my breast are sore and tender. can someone tell me if they went through the same thing ↑
I have been on Clomid 100 mg for 4 months and still no baby. My dr said the meds are working and i am ovulating but like i said no baby. I pray that this month will be the one. The only side affect i have had on the meds is hot flashes at night, but i don't care what side affects i have as long as a baby is in the future. We have been trying for a year now, and i am starting to get the feeling i won't have on of my own this is the fisrt month on 100 mg so i can only pray that i will be pergant this month,but i will keep ever one posted. best of luck ↑
Maria, Don't get too frustrated or give up home. After trying for 2 years, I was on Clomid for a year (with Metformin) before I concieved my first child. I am currently 14 wks. pregnant with twins after another 8 months of trying (a miscarriage in between), but I needed a much higher dose this time than with my 1st child. I was on 150 mg. along with Metforming. Good Luck!!! ↑
Hi. I have been diagnosed with PCOS. I started 50mg of clomid last month on cycle days 5-9. I did not get pregnant even though I timed everyhing. I am now on my second cycle - 50mg days 5-9. I hope that it works this time. I have been trying about 3 years now. Can anyone with PCOS give me more information on how long it will take me to conceive. All of the information on this site has been useful. Talk to you soon. ↑
Charity, The biggest difference that I noticed with my pregnancies (first being a singleton) is that this time with twins my pants got tight around 5 weeks! I also happened to get blood work done at 4 weeks to make sure my HcG was doubling after 48 hours (I was a little paranoid after a recent miscarriage). It did double perfectly, but was way higher than would be expected. I did my own research on average HcG ranges because these #'s didn't seem to surprise my Dr.'s at all. I didn't really get nauseaus (mostly in the evening) until about 7-8 weeks and then it went away by the end of the 12th week. I only got sick a couple of times, but with my first pregnancy I was nauseaus or sick at all. So... not huge differences between my pregnancies, but the biggest clues were the quicker loss of a waistline and higher HcG #'s. Good luck!! ↑
Kim, For my first pregnancy, I was on Clomid with Metformin for a year before we concieved. For my second pregnancy, I was on Clomid with Metformin for 6 mo. before we concieved. That ended in a miscarriage, but the very next cycle with clomid we concieved again and are expecting twins. I found that I ovulated very late in my cyle (day 19 or 20) and I had used the Clear Plan Fertiliy Monitor. Once I gave that up and purchased the regular ovulation detecting sticks, I found that I was able to see when I ovulated a lot easier. E-bay tends to sell these for much cheaper and in bulk from med. supply companies than buying from the store. Good luck! ↑
hi.. i am 22 years old and have PCOS and me and my husband have been trying for a year and nothing the Dr. put me on metformin and the next month clomid. i have only been taking clomid for one month and i haven't ovulated. My temp. chart didn't have any changes and i am very worried about getting pregnant my husband is 39 and he had his first baby two years ago. I have mixed emotions if i ever will get pregnant. I pray that God will let me have our own children one day. ↑
I am 33 years old and have pcos and endometriosis. I had surgery in December for the endometriosis. I started on Clomid and Provera in January ( I have been on Glucophage for 18 months for pcos). I took the Provera ten days and then when my cycle started I took the Clomid on days 3-7 and conceived the first month. I later miscarried at 9 weeks. I am now on my second round of Provera and waiting til my cycle starts so I can start Clomid. Hopefully it happens as quickly again. ↑
in febuary i took prometrium for 12 days to bring on my period and it came on the day i took my last pill i was also given clomid from days 4-9 but my doctor said i didnt ovulate. so last month i was given provera for 10 days to bring on my period and nothing happend its been 10 days exactly since i took it and still not period. my breast has been really sore to the point where they cant be touched im not sure what to do can someone please help. should i take a test to see if im pregnant or is it just in my mind.the last day of my period was march 4th ↑
Hi Monique I had to take all 10 provera in January and did not start until about a week or so after I took the last one. If you think you are pregnant though you should see a doctor soon because my ob/gyn said Provera can give the baby some serious problems if taken the firsst 3 months of pregnancy. Hope this helps. Best of luck!!! ↑
Hi I'm 25 years old and was put on a med to bring on my period since I wasnt ovulating.Once my period came on day 5-9 I took Clomid 50mg - My question is since I not sure when my next period would normally come due to irregularity when would I begin to feel pregnancy symptoms or be able to test for pregnancy? I went for my ultrasound on day 13 to see if i had ovulated and the dr told me that I had a healthy follicle measuring 1.9 and that I would ovulate at 2.5 - which would be in 48-72 hrs. Now I'm at day 19 with breast tenderness like crazy. I'm just sooooo confused. By what the doctor said I wouldn't have ovulated until 4-5 days ago, I couldn't be having pregnancy symptoms already could I? I am supposed to be going for bloodwork on day 23 which is just 4 days away but they are only testing progesterone levels to confirm that I have ovulated. Then they say if I don't get my period to come back in for bloodwork again. But how am I supposed to know when I am supposed to get my period since I am so irregular???? PLEASE HELP - I feel like such an idiot everytime I call the doctor's office. All my husband and I want is a baby - I don't want to mess this up. ↑
I just finished my third month of clomid, now 100mg. My husband and I have been trying for a little over six months. My doctor is sending me for a test to see if my tubes are blocked. He does not think that they are but he just wants to be reassured. My husband was tested and he is fine. I do ovulate on my own and take clomid to regulate my period and ovulation. If my test comes back normal, he wants to start artificial insemenation. This month. I think that my doctor is very aggressive. Did anyone ever have artificial insemenation? It sounds pretty easy. Take an ovulation test, when it comes back positive get a samples from the doctor and then the doctor puts it into your cervix...... If anyone has had this, how many times did it take for you to become pregnant? ↑
Jessica - I understand about being irregular. My doc office advised to go on like I was having a 28 day cycle. Last mth I took an hpt on day 28 & it was neg. On day 30 I still didn't get my period so the doc office did a blood test & it came back neg also. Finally just as I was getting ready to start on another round of provera on day 32 it happened. ↑
This mth I ovulated days 15/16. Everyday since day 18 I have been eating everything in site & am always hungry! I am also feeling pretty bloated! It is too soon to take a hpt according to my doc office. Has anyone ever had these symptoms? Could I already be having symptoms if I am pregnant? ↑
jessica, I also had to take clomid to become pregnant and I ovulated on days 19-20 every time I took it. I could tell everytime I became pregnant by day 26. The big clue.... Big, soar breasts. So, I wish you luck!! ↑
Janet, I didn't catch what day you are now in your cycle. 2 out of the 3 times I have concieved, I have been able to get a positive on a hpt 10 days after ovulation (4-5 days prior to my expected period). I used the new Early Detection tests out there. Good luck! ↑
Melissa - I am on day 21 right now. I had bought some of the early detection hpt but the doc office said that they didn't think they would be able to tell so soon! I may have to take one in a day or two! Thanks for the info! XX your fingers!! ↑
thank you laura i just took a pregnancy test and it came back neg but i still fill strange my breast has never hurt like this and for this long period of time i feel bloated. i have been feeling like this for 3 week and it has been 3 weeks since i took my last provera pill ↑
Hi Monique, well if I were you and still had not started after three weeks I would definitely set up an appointment to see my doctor. When I was pregnant before I miscarried at almost 9 weeks the first symptom I had were sore breasts. I am on Clomid 50 mg again and hoping for the best. Best of luck to you too. ↑
