It will go back down once you stop the Clomid. I used to be more of a stickler about this but I have seen several docs prescribing it anyway and people conceiving on it so I have relaxed a bit about it now. It seems to be something that is ok most of the time but just not always.
Femara is better option though so if that is on the table and you have the choice, choose Femara. It actually seems just as pink friendly if not more so than the Clomid.
I always suggest 50 mg for everyone.
Thank you SO much Atomic for all the advice!!!
hello to everyone, I bought the clomid and I will try TTC at the beginning of December. The active ingredient is clomiphene citrated right? in the past they had found a cyst
Functional lutein has been re-absorbed spontaneously. I wondered there might be contraindications with clomid and cysts. I am a little bit worried. some experience? Thank you
Hi guys, wanted to update this thread since the clomid threads really helped me when I was planning my sway. I swayed for months before my attempt but didn't do a strict sway until 2 to 3 months before attempt. Took clomid in Oct, 50mg, days 3-7, and got my bfp at the beginning of this month. Just found out yesterday it's twins! They are measuring a few days apart but doc didn't seem worried. Praying they stick and that I have at least 1 girl in there!!! Will update once I know gender.

When I had my viability ultrasound yesterday the tech said I had a cyst on my right ovary (I took clomid), but that it's totally fine. She said both eggs came from right ovary (it's twins). I wouldn't worry about cysts honestly, I would never have known I had a cyst...no pain or discomfort etc. In fact during my 2ww, all the jabs I had came from my left ovary. Weird!Quote:

Hi everyone,
Well, my tubal reversal went great, both tubes are open, but I didn't get pregnant the very first month so the doctor perscribed clomid. I'm 37 (38 next month), and he wants it to happen for me soon so he wanted to give me a little boost. This is my 1st month on clomid 50 mg cd2-6ish, I started cd2, but it was really late at night (I took my pills around 10:30 each night). I don't think I'll get my bfp this month because everyone in the house had the stomach flu and I think we missed the window to try. It's ok though because we realized that if we do get pregnant this month, the baby would be due on the same day as one of our other kids, so we're ok trying again in January and putting some distance between the birthdays.
Anyway, enough rambling, here are my questions as one that is new to clomid. Which has a bigger impact on the chance of twins: the dosage or the days taken? What I mean is, will i have a better chance of twins if I take 50 mg earlier in the cycle, or if i took 100mg regardless of days taken, or some combination of the two? I'm trying to sway pink, and I'd love twin girls, but I like the odds of having at least one girl if I have twins.
Thoughts are appreciated.
Hi there! I took 50mg, days 3-7 and got pg with twins first round... I'm currently 7 weeks.Quote:

I didn't have the horrible strong bloated painful ovulation that everyone talks about getting while on clomid, if I wasn't using opk's I wouldn't have known I ovulated. Also so far my pg symptoms have been almost nonexistent, save for extreme tiredness and occasional hot flashes or chills. No nausea at all. Now just praying they both stick and at least 1 is a girl. Good luck to you! My experience with clomid was great.Quote:

I didn't have that bloated ovulation this month either. My only symptom with clomid was a 6 day long headache. I'm prone to headaches and migraines anyway, and multiday isn't unheard of for me, but this one started the same day as my first dose and didn't go away until the day after my last pill. Other than that, I've felt fine and couldn't even tell you when I ovulated this month. That's great that your symptoms are so minimal. My boys were super easy, but i got sick with my daughter from the very beginning until i was 8 months or so. It was really crazy. I hope they both stick and you get your girl. The odds are better :) If you have a 50% chance of a girl with each baby, then you have a 75% chance of at least one girl. Good luck and keeps us posted.Quote:
