Success with Clomid?

Hey girls. Wow it's been a while since I've been in here! So the short story is hubby and I have been trying for number 3 for 19 months now with no success. I have PCOS and I'm lucky to get a cycle every 2 or 3 months :( I've finally gotten around to seeing a private gynecologist and she has given me a prescription for clomid which I'm waiting to start on my next cycle.

Just wondering if anyone has any positive success stories about clomid? I'm so excited to even just have a regular cycle. We did try charting but when your going up to 4 months without seeing AF it can be a struggle to stay motivated enough to keep up with it. Having a monthly AF is going to be fantastic!

Yep me, after 23 months TTC I fell pregnant on my fifth round of Clomid with my Littlest DD. Took a few goes to get my doseage right, but once we did we hit the jackpot    It gave me horrid sweats and hot flushes but it was worth it!

Good luck I really hope it works quickly for you!

I was diagnosed with PCOS (very long cycles, never ov'd on my own, BAD cysts on both ovaries..) and was on Clomid for 3 rounds (apparently my scan was so bad- so many cysts that my gynae didnt know if clomid would even work so just gave me 3 rounds and i was already on the list for IUI etc if the clomid didnt work..) BUT the 3rd round we hit the jackpot and now my gorgeous girl is 9 and a half months old clomid tends to work really well for most with PCOS, so hang in there, and push through all the icky side effects- heres hoping you have none at all though!
after my first round i was put on metformin too which i think helped heaps..(maybe ask the doc about that if you like?) the first clomid cycle its doubtful i ovd from looking at my chart..but it did shorten my cycle a lot.the 2nd cycle with clomid and metformin i got a bfp but a chem pregnancy, 3rd round made up for it all tho!
good luck i hope you get those 2 magic lines very soon! x x

Both my kids are clomid babies.

I think we got preg on our 5th or 6th cycle the 1st time round and conceived triplets, however i lost 2 of the babies and we have Jorja shes 3.5y.

Then second time around it took us 15 months TTC with about 4-5 (? maybe more) cycles of clomid and now we have Lockie hes 13.5mths

Good luck!

Take clomid in the evening to lessen the side effects :)

Hi Lisa

Hope your first cycle went ok. It's worth it in the end and so many people have success with Clomid. Hopefully your wait is not too long.

hi ladies, i had a dr apt the other week and clomid was suggested to help me OV. i am on CD51 and blood tests i havent yet OV....? i am a little hesitant taking clomid as dr said there is a possibility of having multiple babies. im ok with twins as they run in my family, but triplets would be scary!! what are your stories with clomid?

ok, i think i might try it. partner done one of those new at-home sperm tests the other night, found out he has a low count so i will try everything i can to help
