This is my third time doing the clomid cycle and each time has been different. First time, I got lots of hot flashes and bloating. The second time hardly any symptoms at all, this time, blurred vision. I had to take a dose in the AM because I missed my day 3 PM dose due to an emergency. I noticed my vision was messy but could not figure out why. I also had a drink of vodka and cranberry, so... I know I should not be drinking but I just wanted to and with me doing things perfectly and having a busted IUI I figured, I go ahead and have me some fun. I read the insert and it said nothing about not drinking with the meds so guess what I am having another drink tonight too. I just feel like women get plastered all the time and still conceive. Why all this carefulness and I am not even pregnant yet?
Any way, that's where I am and having hot flashes with this cycle of clomid too. I am glad I don't have to return to work until Tuesday which is the last day of my clomid. Thank goodness.
I respond well to clomid each time. The first cycle I had one follicle due to me messing up on my dosage of Bravelle. The second cycle 3 big ones and we'll see what happens this cycle. By Tuesday, I won't be drinking so hopefully I can get 3 or more.
For me, clomid's effects became stronger over time. (Or perhaps I just became more emotional with each failed cycle.)
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you about drinking even when you are taking Clomid. The more you deny yourself, the more you resent when the cycle doesn't take.
