Is this normal while taking clomid?

I started 100mg of clomid this month (CD3-7) and will also being doing ovidrel and IUI (probably next weekend or early next week).

During the 5 days I had no side effects whatsoever...except the occasional hot flash in the night. Today however I'm feeling hot all the time, emotional and very very tired. I also started having pains on my ovaries this afternoon (I have cysts and endometriosis so I'm used to this feeling but usually only the day I ovulate and during my period...)

Also my temps have been pretty much steady at 98.2 since the first day I took clomid. Could this be due to frequent waking up from hot flashes or does clomid raise bbt????

Should I be worried or just take these symptoms as a sign it's working???

Update:

got to love stupid morons....way to **** off an already emotional woman!

Update 2:

yes chick....I actually posted this same question on FT already :)

I always post it in both since I tend to get answers sooner on Y/A

Update 3:

but I haven't ovulated yet...my temps have been high since CD3...it's only CD 10

    When I took clomid 50 mg I was very tired and moody from the day I started it until the day I got my period. The only time I had pains in my ovaries was when I was ovulating. What cd are you on? I ovulated about 8-9 days after my last pill each time. I would keep an eye on your chart and make sure you don't ovulate on your own. Your temps may be a little higher when on clomid from what I've heard as well.

    When I had my iui I did gonal-f and lupron. The lupron was to stop all of my natural hormones so that the injections could work without interference. I don't know if they do that with clomid.

    If you have any questions at all don't hesitate to call the doctor. That's what they're there for. Good luck!

    I experienced the same thing when I was taking Clomid. I think it has a lot to do with the post-ovulation phase of the cycle. After ovulation occurs, your temperatures will usually be higher because of progesterone.

    Good luck!

    these can be normal side effects of Clomid unfortunately and it sounds liek you're doing everything right!
