Just started clomid!?

Hey guys! I just started taking my first round of clomid yesterday(50mg)! I'm really excited and very prayerful! We are really praying that GOD will bless us on our first round. However I am a little nervous, I really don't even feel like i have taken the medicine I've read others clomid stories and seen and heard about all kinds of mood swings and hot flashes and the last 2 days i felt perfectly fine, other than feeling a little wierd the first 30 mins after. Can you guys tell me about side effects and experiences you had with Clomid.

    When I took it I got mood swings and very bad headaches but its worth it... By the way it only took me 2 rounds of Clomid to conceive.

    First off Good Luck on the Clomid! I am on my 2nd round of 50 mg of Clomid. I haven't really had the mood swings that some people experience (although my hubby may say different..lol). Seriously though, I have experienced hot flashes and stomach cramping on it. The cramping I had around ovulation through my period. It was pretty minimal and wasn't all that bothersome at all. I also have insomnia. My doctor said she hadn't heard of that being a side effect so I am not sure it is related but its new to me. On a side note...I found a great ovulation predictor at babymed.com http://babymed.com/Tools/fertility/clomid/

    You can calculate when you ovulate by inserting when you start the Clomid!

    the very first time i took clomid i started having hot flushes in the night about a week after taking them... turned into a b*tch from hell lol - had water retention around ovulation, so i was bloated, urinating a lot around ovulation too. pregnancy symptoms after ovulation as well even when AF would show up.

    After taking it for a while you seem to get use to it.. first and second month u may have a few but after that you should be ok.

    oh, i gained over a stone, a lot of people i know that took clomid gained weight! be careful. lol.

    goodluck

    all the best xx

    Source(s): conceived on 11th month of clomid but miscarried at 5 weeks. :-(

    I haven't taken Clomid (hoping I'll be prescribed some though), but have also heard that it can give some pretty bad s/e. One woman that I'm in a group with gets severe mood swings.

    I would count yourself lucky that you aren't experiencing anything.
