I've been taking pregnacare although I think I'll probably switch to just folic acid when these run out. Well just sitting here waiting for af to turn up now so I can get started. Hubby's SA is a week today and then we're off on holiday, so should be nice and relaxing and with any luck we'll come back with a bean on board!

Well AF has just made an unwanted appearance... On CD28

On the plus side, at least I know clomid has made me ovulate! So now looking forward to trying again next month but not looking forward to the next cycle of clomid and the night sweats...x

Hi girls! i've been off the pill for nearly two and a half years now, my cylces were very unregular, being that i had one period in about a year. They then started to become regular after i had my first natural one, but are now becoming more and more unregular again, around 6 weeks at the moment. I have been going to see a consultant who have said they think i have polycystic ovaries. I am not overweight, if anything on the slim side and am waiting for my results of more tests in July. My consultant said if my results come back how they expect they will perscribe me Clomid, however if my periods are starting to become less regular will this work for me?
I am taking pregcare conception and my partner is taking wellman.

Any advice would be grateful xx

That's good news dannii, so will they keep you on 100mg of clomid if that's working better?

Karla, I have unexplained fertility although my test results didn't completely rule our PCOS they weren't happy to diagnose this. I also had very irregular periods after coming off the pill - only 1 in 9 months - so Dr prescribed me norethisterone to induce a period (which worked) so I could then start taking Clomid on CD3-7. The clomid also worked by making me ovulate... We didn't conceive on the first cycle of it and it resulted in a 28 day cycle with a period on day 28. I started the second cycle last night so crossing fingers that we will be successful this time!

Day 1 of my clomid adventure has begun. Af arrived yesterday. Doc said day 2-5 for me. Feeling nervous now the time has come. Got two sessions of reflexology this week too. When did you all start feeling the side effects from them. Was it straight away or after a few days? Did they last all cycle or just whilst taking tablets?

Hi ela, good luck starting clomid. I noticed some mild side effects after a about cd 5-6, then nothing else until build up to ov. I'm confused this cycle, my temps are all over the place. Ov hasn't shown up on my graph yet! Even though I've had a positve opk and cm has definitely changed, and the ov pain has stopped! Oh well

Thanks Chezza, I have not been told that i need anything to help me have regular periods as i do get them, but they can vary from 4weeks to 6weeks, do you think i will need anything? They started becoming 4weeks and 1 day so pretty much spot on, however it is now 6 weeks ansd nothing. I am just worried that if i don't get given anything to help my periods, when will i know to take the clomid. As if things aren't stressful enough! It's just a waiting game for me now though until the end of July for my appointment with my consultant so hopefully things sort themselves out by then!

Fingers crossed for you hun! Let me know how you get on!

When you take the Clomid, do you have to go back for checkups or anything?

I don't know what your doctor will suggest but I would guess they may say to wait until your period turns up and then start taking clomid (this will hopefully regulate your cycles and make you ovulate) but if you go for a long time (or haven't had one from now until July) they may give you something to force a bleed so you can begin clomid. I currently live abroad and the doctor here does not monitor me as much as I know some do in the uk. I know girls who have to go for day 21 blood tests to see if they've ovulated or even for scan to see if there any developing follicles. My doc however, just says for me to go in if I get any bad pains, sickness, etc etc and other than that I'm to give it 4 months on clomid.
