Clomid vs femara

Abbey
So my husband and I were going to do <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> this month but by the third day of the 5 days of clomid I had a terrible reaction I had hives all over. They had me stop taking clomid (also the side effects were horrible) and we couldn't do <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a>. They told me they would try femara next. I'm wondering if anyone who had a similar reaction and side effects on clomid had better luck with the femara?
TIA!
