Hi all,
I have been reading the posts over the last couple days and thought it was time I contributed. Although I'm a bit useless so will probably get lost trying to get back on again haha!
OK so my story is, I have 2 children who are older and want to now have another one with my partner but it wasn't happening for us. I then had a series of blood tests and ultrasound and was told I have PCOS and need to take clomid to ovulate. So now I'm on my 2nd round of 50mg days 5-9. That's all, no metformin because apparently my insulin ? is alright.
First round was a bit tricky as doctor tried to induce my period but it didn't happen so she told me just to start it anyway. AF then came on 'cycle day' 22 so impossible to know if I actually ovulated. So technically, this is my first round of doing it 'properlly'.
I just had my last tablet today. So far any side effects have been manageable.
Anyway that's me! I just wanted to say that I love reading all your stories and it REALLY helps to know I'm not alone. Even though I have an amazing, supportive partner, it is a very tough and stressful time TTC.

Forgot to mention that my periods are and always have been very erratic. Usually anywhere between 2 and 4 months apart. So whether I have always had PCOS I really do not know!
That's all!

Hey ladies.. I finished taking the clomid tablets last week had my scan and my follicle was 14mm and today it reached 19mm and it collapsed which they told me it was a positive thing I need to go for a blood test on Tuesday to see if I definently ovulated! If so I will have a preg test 2weeks after! I know not to get my hopes up but I'm keeping positive, at the moment I have abdominal pain is this normal? I do have pco.. X

Hey ladies.The last I was hear I was so excited by getting a bfp and went to the doctor and he confirmed that I was 4weeks pregnant.2days later at night I had these painful abdormin pains,when I went 2 the toilet only 2 find out I was bleeding.The next day I went 2 the doctor he took some blood tests.A day after he called me and told me that I just miscarried!I felt so empty and didn't know what to do.One thing I won't do is give up.so ladies hold on,don't give up.Better luck next time.Babydust to every1.

Hi,
I just wanted to share my Clomid story so far. I ended up going to a gynotologits for my ovarian cysts and had told her that I had been ttc for almost 2 years. I also had been using a digital ovulation predictor for the past 3 months and even with a positive smile, your ovulating. No pregnancy.
She told me I had a pulp in uterus, set me up for an MRI and put in a referral to a fertility clinic.
It was the best decisions. They set my husband and I up for testing right away. I had my MRI, Sonohysterogram and hysterosalpingogram done. Turns out that aside from the pulp in my uterus and a cyst....both of my tubes were blocked. One let the fluid in but nothing out and the other was blocked from the start. Most likely from the surgical removal of the appendix I had done in high school. The doc had thought it was unhealthy and I had to sign consent for removal.
So I had my operation to have everything done at once. I was so happy read a note in the recovery room that they removed the pulp and they were able to successful unlock both fallopian tubes. I did find out I have sever endometriosis.
After my recovery I went back to the fertility clinic to discuss options. Even though I do ovulate on my own each month the doc wanted to take an aggressive approach. Since I had been trying for so long she immediately went over the treatment option.
I'm on Clomid 50 starting on day 3 of my cycle. I have the cycle monitoring. I strongly recommended it because with the ultrasounds and blood tests you are really prepared. If your not doing IUI they will instruct you to begin having daily intercourse and when needed give you the medication that will cause you to release your egg in a timely manner.
I got the ok to start Clomid on day 3 of my cycle. I went for my monitoring on day 10 and the nurse was in shock. She said I had alot of follicles and wanted me to wait to speak to the doc after saying we don't want you to have 5 babies!
Turns out my body is very sensitive to Clomid. So much that they want me to take half the dose so 25. I had 4 on my right side and 1 on the left. She said they wanted me to come in the next morning for another ultrasound and blood work. They wanted to see if the 5th would mature like the others and warned me if it did, they would tell me to skip the cycle and not continue with the timed intercourse.
I went today and found out that not only had the 4 grown in 24hrs but the side that had 4 now have 5 mature and the other side with the one had stayed the same.
My normal doc had told me yesterday, it is not encouraged but would be my decision if I wanted to still continue with natural intercourse. She warned me that the doc I would see today would tell me to cancel that plan if I had 5 mature the next day.
She told me I would ovulate today or tomorrow and not to have intercourse. Since I already had she told me not to stress out and that if I had a positive test at the end of the month she would Schedule and early ultrasound.
I don't know if anyone has had similar experience?.
I did struggle with the decision of whether to continue with intercourse or skip this cycle. I am a twin myself and I know all about the increased risk of multiples.
This Journey has been a long and at times a hard one but I know it will all be worth it in the end.
I am Very Fortunate to have 0 side effects from the Clomid. I have read some people have not so great reactions to it.
Fortunately it wont be a long wait to see how this cycle does turn out. It is out of my hands but I will continue to hope and pray.
To everyone still trying on Clomid don't give up and if you can try cycle monitoring through a fertility clinic. I strongly recommended it. Good luck to everyone

Szeretlek that is a fantastic story! Well done. And thanks for sharing. Stay in touch I cant wait to hear what happens! That is so great that you respond well to clomid, hopefully youll just get 1 bub though - or maybe 2 if u want that!
TeeJay i am so sorry darling you must be devastated :(
Glad to hear youre not giving up though. At least you know it does work, it just wasnt meant to be this time but maybe next cycle will be the one for you.
As for me its cd 16 today and ive been having twinges today in lower abdomen predominantly right side. Now feeling bloated and uncomfortable. Hoping this means im ovulating so gonna bd (which we are every 2 nights anyway). Only worry is still no cm despite regular robitussin and grapefruit juice. But oh well will keep my fingers crossed and see what happens!
Baby dust!

Ii am so sorry to hear that teejay, keep the faith.

Ii am so sorry to hear that teejay, keep the faith.

Thanks Micha. I will let you know how it all turns out.I'm trying not to get to excited because I have always gotten a negative result in the past.

Szeretlek any update on you?
Today is cd28 so i finally tested and got a bfn :( so sad right now. Wondering if it was too early but i think im clutching at straws. Its just my 21day prog was 79 so i was really hoping. Plus been really crampy last couple days and dizzy all day yesterday.
Baby dust to all.

Hey Micha, sorry to hear about the bfn. Maybe you should retest in a couple of day or get a blood test?. Doesn't hurt to test again :)
I have pelvic pain-restless sleep because of the serious cramping. It is straight across my lower abdomen. Stomach is sensitive to touch and can't sleep on it. Feeling bloated and have a heavy feeling in my lower abdomen.
I called the clinic and the nurse said everything is normal so she would see me next week.
The last 2 days haven't been fun. I think if I get my period it wont be a good one. I don't know if others have experienced this.
