Next Step

Well after having my labs drawn on Friday the nurse told me to call back with the 1st day of my next cycle..that happened to be today. Just got off the phone with her & they are going to start me on my first round of Clomid !!! Friday will be my first dose and then they tentatively have me scheduled to still have the sonohysterogram next Tuesday. I guess to just make sure all is clear up in there ! I just want to jump up & down right now but trying to remember that Clomid doesnt do the trick for everyone either.....also does anyone know if I can continue to take my B6 & Fish Oil once I start the Clomid ? ( I will take my prenatals for sure) .. Thanks

glad things are moving along for you!!!

those are natural supplements and generally aren't a problem while taking other meds. just double check the hand out you get from the pharmacist to be sure of any interactions.

best wishes!!

So...I start with my first dose of 50mg Clomid tomorrow. I am going to continue to keep doing BBT/OPK this cycle, & wondering if I should expect to see any major changes in BBT/OPK compared to all my previous cycles. Will I O later on ?? Should I time BD a little different ??

We also are leaving to go on a cruise next week (horray) so I will be dragging my stuff with (will be CD 11-15 while on the cruise). I am a tad nervous about starting this whole Clomid round after reading all the horror stories. Rare you hear about the good side effects! I will take it at bedtime and expect to have those hot flashes which seems pretty common.

Honestly, I wouldnt BBT until after you are done with the clomid. Clomid made my temps really high and it takes a few days to get back to normal... so if you do temp for habbit.. just be ware!!

HOT flashes and night sweats... lol I had bad headaches. My eyes also got alittle funny while taking the meds.

Good Luck!!

After you stop the clomid.. so CD 10.. but your temps may still be higher than normal for a few days post Clomid.

Here is a chart that I had with Clomid.. you can see that I was a little high for pre-O temps.. but then went down.
