Clomid users

How soon after starting Clomid did you have side effects, what were they, and how long did they last?

Re: Clomid users

  • well I would say on day 3 I started seeing side effects...and they lasted until about 4 or 5 days after stopping the clomid.

    Basically all around b*tchiness, and major mood swings.  One minute I would be happy, then crying, then yelling, then crying, then happy...DH just loooved me during that stage haha!

    But that's why they call it the clomid crazies!

  • My acupuncturist has me on herbs that are supposed to help reduce the side effects of clomid....luckily they seem to be working so far.  But I had a few hot flashes that have occurred on day 2 or 3 of the clomid. 

    The last time I was on clomid, without herbs, the hot flashes were HORRIBLE and lasted about 2 weeks (even tho it was only 5 days of clomid).

  • I took 50mg CD 5-9... and am happy to reply that I did not have any side effects :)  That surprised me bc I was crazy moody on just the Provera, so I thought the Clomid would really get me!

    Next cycle they are bumping me to 100mg so we'll see if that has any effects or not...

  • I didn't have any s/es the first cycle..the 2nd all i had was hot flashes and the munchies (50mg) BUT on 100 mg i was a raging biotch and wanted to eat everything in sight
  • I just took my third pill tonight.  I take it 9;45pm and go to bed with in an hour of taking it, so I sleep through them probably.  I have had a mild headache for the last two days.  Last night I had crazy dreams! I think the higher the dosage, the more side effects you feel.
