For Female Infertility "So I have been TTC for years. I am 24 years old and I don’t have regular periods, so my doctor prescribed Clomid 50mg for me to take for 5 days, as well as Provera to induce my period. My period did come and I started the Clomid on cycle day 2. It’s now cycle day 28 and I am experiencing some symptoms such as lower back ache, sore nipples, and cramps. Can’t wait to do my pregnancy test, hoping it’s positive. Anyone else experience these symptoms?"

For Female Infertility "TTC for almost 2 years, I’m 31 and DH 30, not even a late af more than 2 days or faint line. I still got af every month and tried ov kits on and off. We started clomid in June 2020 and in July was our 2nd round. I was on day 2-5, 50mg and a 21-day progesterone test. By August 3rd, got my first ever BFP. I had sore boobs from 1 dpo and super hungry. But just thought it was clomid symptoms and that this must be real PMS when you ov. I’ve had symptoms before and got so caught up symptoms checking I just thought I was putting pieces together that weren’t there. Still feeling hopeful and did my first POAS test at 9dpo with BFN, then again on 10dpo and got a BFP, first response. It’s so shocking to see 2 lines after trying for so long and seeing nothing, I was speechless and did not expect it. So happy and wanted to share with everyone on here as these forums helped me soo much and gave me hope. Best of luck to everyone TTC and don’t give up hope."

For Female Infertility "My hubby and I have been TTC for over a year, with no results. I finished my first round of Clomid just over a week ago. I definitely ovulated a few days ago. As of yesterday, I have really sore breasts, and I'm so tired. While taking the pills, I didn't have any side effects at all! I really hope I get my BFP next week! Will post again soon with an update. Good luck and baby dust!"

For Female Infertility "I tried Clomid 50 mg for three cycles, but no success 3-7. My periods were on the 20 Sep 2019. I started on the 23 Sept 2019 Clomid 100 mg first round 4-8. I didn't experience any side effects. The only result when I finished the 7 days was cramps in my abdomen for 1 day. Then the next day, my nipples became sore. I'm just waiting to miss my period and get a big positive. God bless all. Cross fingers, ladies. Baby dust to you all."

For Female Infertility "I always go on the internet and read your stories because every time I read them, it restores hope and faith in me. I'm 27 years old, been trying to get pregnant for 4 years, but last year, in June 2020, I started seeing a GYN doctor. He ran some tests and found out I'm infertile, then he prescribed me Clomid straight to 100 mg for six months, and luckily nothing happened, but I was ovulating. Then after these months, he booked me for laparoscopy surgery to check my tubes. I had my surgery in March 2021 and found out my left tube is totally blocked and my right tube is okay. After all that, my doctor called me in for check-ups and stuff. He prescribed me Clomid again, first cycle 50 mg and nothing happened, and second 100 mg on days 2-6 of my cycle. This time around no side effects at all, but recently, I'm having side pains, back pains, and breast pain. I'm thinking maybe it's PMS or just my imagination."

For Female Infertility "I started Clomid last month. I haven’t received my period. I tested, and it came out negative. I’m feeling so hopeless. My breasts are so sore. Could this be a side effect? What should I do?"
