Clomid Success Stories Please!
Hello ladies,
I'm interested in hearing about some real life experiences of Clomid. We've been trying for six months being up against irregular and loonnng cycles. My gp has said to go in for day 21 bloods and is referring hubby for an SA. Assuming there's nothing too wildly wrong, he's going to give us Clomid for three months. Now firstly I would say how lucky I feel that he's being so proactive, as I am well aware that many couples wait much longer. It's going to be a couple of months before we start as there's a backlog for the SA and I'm six weeks into my cycle with no sign of af or ov for that matter, but at least there's light at the end of the tunnel
It's really been getting us down, and at 35 I'm just scared it's never going to happen for us, so I'm rather pinning my hopes on the Clomid. I've been reading about statistics, but they just don't tell you the things you'd really like to know! Sooo, if Clomid has worked for you .....
What dosage were you on?
What length were your cycles before taking it?
What length was your cycle whilst you were taking it?
Did you have any side effects?
What cycle did you conceive on?
I'd still also like to hear from those that haven't been successful pretty much as above, but with how many unsuccessful cycles you had.
I'd be really grateful to any of you willing to share your experiences. Xx

I conceived after 3 years and 3 months of TTC on cycle 5 of clomid. I have PCOS and my cycles varied massively before treatment. Whilst on clomid my cycles were around the 30 day mark and I was on 50mg per day. I didn't have any side effects apart from the odd hot flush here and there in the first few days of a cycle.
Good luck! x
I conceived both my boys on the second cycle of 50mg clomid. I've got PCOS and do not have a regular cycle, before my first son was born I hadn't had a period for about 4 years. Whilst on clomid my cycle was 30 days and I had no side effects at all.
Good luck, I hope you are as luck as I was with it. Xx
