has clomid helped anyone - Page 2

Kathy326 · 04-25-2005, 07:35 AM

I am 29w5d pg after one cycle of 50mg. Clomid. My dh was diagnosed with moderate male factor (poor motility, morphology), so we chose to do an IUI with Clomid to increase our odds. On just 50mg. I produced 3 mature follies. Then dh's slow movin' sperm were given a boost by being placed directly in my uterus. This tx did the trick in only one shot! We were really lucky.

Good luck to you!

today starts my 2nd round of clomid 50 mg. my af arrived saturday and it is really bad. it has never been this bad. does anybody know if clomid is suppose to make your period worse? this is my 2nd month on this and i have been trying for 2 1/2 years, everytime af comes i get more and more discouraged. i hope this round works but im not getting my hopes up. the only thing that makes me feel a little confident in clomid is that everyone that responded to my post it has worked for and most of them in the 3rd month. thank u all for responding it truly helps when u have no idea what to expect from clomid. good luck to all and congrats to u kathy326. im so glad it worked for u. good luck with your pregnancy.

1st month 50mg -

Thanks Heather and good luck to you too! You got alot of positive feedback on this thread. Although I only did 1 cycle, I did alot of research before I took the Clomid, and yes, it can affect/change your cycle.

Hi Heather
Just to add to the list....
I am 6 weeks pg today after one cycle of Clomid at 50 mg. The reason for my IF is that I have PCOS and do not ovulate on my own. I have my 1st pg u/s one week from today at 7 weeks. All of this waiting throughout the IF process is hard! I hope that we here good news soon!!!
good luck to you!!

heather1006 · 05-27-2005, 05:21 PM

I got pregnant on my first cycle(m/c though due to pcos)... then my third cycle.(this was after we got sperm issues cleared up). Good luck. There are millions of clomid babies out there.

Good luck Heather! Make sure you check back and let us know what happens. We have all been through the ups and downs of the IF journey and we are here to comfort in the hard times and celebrate in the good times. I had unexplained secondary IF after getting PG on my own 8 times (five children, 3 m/c) and I got pg on my second round of Clomid. It does work, I've known MANY women who have gotten pg on it. I hope it works for you too, but don't forget that it's not a last resort and if you need other treatments there are plenty available. There are many women here who can give you great advice and support on just about any route you choose to go. Best of luck to you!
