On my 5th round of Clomid?

I have now been on clomid for 5 months. The first four I had taken 50mg days 5-9 and 3-7, got bad side effects ie Major hot flashes, night sweats, breat tenderness for 2 weeks before my period, as well as mood swings. I have not been monitored by my doctor at all so im not sure I ovulated but because of ovulation signs I believe i have yet still no pregnancy.

My doctor upped the dosage on my 5th round at 100mg and I'm suppose to start my period in 5 days. I have had NO side effects from the clomid this time around and thats odd, youd think the side effects would intensify...well i did have small mood wings for a day or two. IS THIS NORMAL??

Did you have side effects throughout the time you took clomid?

What's your story? and please tell me your success story.

I pray it works this time. If i don/t get PG, im giving up...:(

Good luck to all who are trying to conceive..

    I had the exact same reaction to 50 mgs of clomid and didn't ovulate at all. Why hasn't your doctor ordered a progesterone test to check if you ovulated? That was the very first thing they checked with me after my first round so that they could figure out to keep me at 50 or up me. That's more odd to me than having no side effects at all on the 100. Most all women that have side effects on 50 do not with 100. It could be your body getting used to the clomid or a number of other things. Do not give up! If you do not ovulate by yourself it may mean that you should look into going to another doctor that will monitor you more closely. If you do not know if you ovulated or not it can only make ttc harder! A good doctor will be able to tell you if you did by a blood test and from there check your folicles. Good luck to you! I'm def. Not a doctor but all of this is from personal experience! Hopefuly it worked for you this cycle! Take a test tomorrow morning and if it is neg. wait a couple of days and test again in the morning!

    I have been taking clomid for a few months now and at first they had me only take one pill a day on days 5-9 of my cylce and for months nothing was happening so when i went back to my doctor's and told him that i didn't want to take them any more he convinced me to give it one more try and so i did but instead he had me take 3/50mg pills a day and since then my ovulation levels have been over 15.I haven't had many side effects the only side effect i have had is the tender breast and i think that i might be pg but not knowing because i wasn't getting a period so he put me on progesterone pills to make me start my period and have been on them since May,and by tomorrow (8th) i should get my period well that's when it is do,but all i can say to you is give it time when its your time to have a baby your will know trust me :)
