"Clomid cycle" buddies??

Question

Anyone starting their first round of clomid in the next 2 days? Want to be "medically induced cycle" buddies? Having PCOS with irregular cycles has made me feel so lonely every time I've scrolled over this huge "Cycle Buddies" group this past year 😔
So excited to finally be starting treatment on Monday! 😁

Answer

I started my first round of Clomid on the 7th and got my positive ovulation test on the 17th! Fingers crossed!!

Answer

Well, not sure if anyone's still checking this, but I'll update anyhow. Thought I got a positive FRER this morning but most people who saw the pics think it's an indent. Never had one of those on a FRER but clearly many others have. Took another later in the day with about the same result, so maybe a bad box. Sniffles and sneezes driving me crazy, and I'm SOOO tired. Even more than I usually am during luteal phase. Like, going up the stairs hurts as though I've been working out all day. Granted if these were pregnancy symptoms, that implies I'd have enough hcg in my system for a bfp. Probably just coming down with a cold, but I'll keep testing for the hell of it. Just 8 dpo today.

Update, clomid night 4: woke up with hot flashes again; well, thankfully this time I was actually sweating which felt WAY less awful, so maybe night sweats? Also still some indigestion when I went to bed, but not bad. Woke up this morning feeling pretty normal. 
Just took my 5th and final (hopefully ever!) dose. Starting the pricey doctor's-orders digital opks in 2 days. Hope everyone else is doing well! Good night!!

Here's my Sky. Took this one a few years ago when I first got her--stupid phone doesn't have enough memory for me to take another shot without deleting stuff--she's a bit bigger now

Answer

Hey ladies! This is my first cycle trying clomid too! I just got my surge on the July 12 so I am pretty sure I ovulated on July 13! I had my HSG last month and it was clean but hopefully that will help me this month!

Answer

Update, night 2: woke up 2 AM with what I assume was a hot flash. I was roasting under my thin blanket. Fell back asleep about 30 minutes later. Woke up this morning feeling gross and bloated, like when you drink too much water too fast.

Answer

Hi....I’m your cycle buddy. Starting my first round of clomid this cycle after two fail iui without medication.

Answer

Well, cd 17 and still no positive opk. Clear blue advanced started flashing "high" about 4 days ago, and I started getting some pretty intense soreness around my ovaries (pain steadily decreased and is pretty much gone now), so I was hopeful... Now I'm starting to get a bit depressed. Glow says I'm due to ovulate tomorrow based on my average o time in a "normal" cycle, but I doubt it. Tomorrow will make 10 days since I took my last clomid pill. So weird, I get LH surges most months... Thought clomid was supposed to increase the odds of that, but I'm starting to think I'm having a rare anovulatory cycle. I've been testing 3x daily so I know I couldn't have missed it. Wtf.

Answer

Have any of y'all had any pain during your follicular (pre-ovulation) phase during a clomid cycle? I'm having some. It's very mild--I pretty much just feel it when I sit down quickly--but it's on both sides, near where my ovaries are. I know hyper stimulation is a potentially very dangerous risk with clomid, and I've got a high pain tolerance due to life-long chronic illness, so I'd rather mention it than tough it out quietly. If it gets any worse I'll of course all my doctor, but I wondered if anyone else had experienced something similar.
