Cramping after ovulation??
Hi all!
I started Provera on Jan 16. Af started 24th and clomid was taken on cds 2-6 as per Dr suggestions. Started using clear blue advanced opk on cd 10 and got the O (meaning low fertility) for 3 days. Cds 13-17 I got the flashing smiley (meaning high fertility) and the steady smiley (peak) on cd 18. I started getting o pains on cd 17 which is when my cm was creamy and cp was high. Did bd cd 17-19.
I've been having moderate to sometimes severe cramps everyday since and sore boobs and lower back for 2 1/2 days now.
I've always felt the o pain but never cramped this bad for this long other than af cramps that are usually only the first few days. Any ideas what this could be? Should I be worried? Could this be cyst?

Clomid can cause all sorts of symptoms before, during, and after O. I wouldn't assume you have a cyst, I think you're having clomid side effects still.
My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP
TTC #1
- swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!
Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic
Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

You can get O pains before, during, and after O and Clomid can really make for some strange and wicked O pains!!

Thanks ladies. I also have been having some crazy breast soreness and yesterday saw a change in cm. Maybe a bfp in my future?!

Maybe, altho Clomid can be a party pooper by making you have pg-like symptoms and BFN. :/ GL!!!

Another question... My cm has changed yet again, from dry (1dpo) to creamy (5dpo) and now ewcm (7dpo). We have dtd so I'm not confusing it with semen... Another side effect of clomid?

AT about that point in your cycle, you have something called "the secondary estrogen surge" which is when your body releases a burst of estrogen to help maintain your uterine lining for a little while longer to enable a baby to implant. Sometimes you will get estrogen-related symptoms like a wee bit of EWCM, a temp dip if you're temping, or a little spotting from your cervix at this point.

This is all so new to me. I have four other kids but only one was planned and although I needed clomid to conceive, I didn't chart or time. This baby making thing is so much easier and less stressful, it seems, when you're not waiting miserably and oh so impatiently!

So, I started testing with hpt at 10dpo. Yesterday was 15dpo and all have been negative. If I ovulated, why haven't I started my period yet? I've put a call into my obgyn but they're referring me to an RE. I am going crazy needing answers before then! Please help and thank you in advance!
So happy for you Treens, congratulations Sent from my SM-A225F using Tapatalk
