Headaches

[Positive2022]

Evening All,

For those of you that have been prescribed Clomid, did you get headaches? I'm aware they are a potential side effect but I have been really struggling with them, almost daily over the past week. Any good tips on how to ease them? Taking pain killers but not really helping much xxx

Hi poppy i was also using clomid i was on 100mg i took 3 months. i was very teary and had headaches aswel. I would recommend staying hydrated. Which round of clomid are you?

Hi lovely, sorry to hear you had some horrid side effects as well. Hope you are doing ok. I'm only on cycle 2 out of 6. First cycle 50mg and overstimulated, felt really rough. This cycle taking 25 mg and headaches terrible. Awaiting scan Friday so will ask then what I can do. Thanks for advice, i am making sure I keep my fluid levels up !! Xxx

its great that your body is responding to a lower dose. I hope your okay now and your ovaries have settles down after the over stimulation. I wish when i was taking the clomid i did a iui cycle with the clomid. Ithink i would have liked to try iui while using clomid. Wishing you all the best.xxx

hey poppy. Its great that your are looking frwad to the scan make sure u ask loads of questions. when my nurse scanned me it was quick and out the door but i made sure even though i was made to hurry up get dressed and go i still asked the questions.i could tell this was frustrating fr the nurse to keep asking questions probably becuz they get asked these qustions al the time. but that is what they are supposed to do anyway. i asked what size the follicles measured and what size it should be before it release an egg i also asked when to start baby dancing. If your were ove responding to the 50mg its likely you will respond to 25mg. Best wishes.xxx

Hi I asked my Gynacoligy for Chlomid but they said I wasn’t aloud it I don’t know why? They put me on northisorne tablets to force a period I was ovulating while on them I started bleed this morning I don’t know if it’s a period or implantation bleeding I’ve got pain on the right side of my stomach stomach cramps bleeding light and heavy , any chance of pregnant after this bleed?

[Positive2022 in reply to Amelia2018]

Hi lovely, i would contact your clinic to let them know your symptoms and ask their advice about what to do. I do hope you are doing ok xxx

[Amelia2018 in reply to Positive2022]

I did today and they said to ring in the morning I don’t know why and thankyou xx

[Positive2022 in reply to Amelia2018]

Keep phoning lovely and jot down any symptoms. I'm so sorry i can't be more helpful, i don't know enough about Clomid and only just starting it myself so all new to me. I hope you get on ok when you call in the morning xxx

[Amelia2018 in reply to Positive2022]

I will do Hun , does it help with pregnancy and ovulating?

[Amelia2018 in reply to Amelia2018]

Xxx

[Positive2022 in reply to Amelia2018]

My understanding is it's meant to help with stimulating ovulation, although does come with side effects and i was advised to take for no longer then 6 cycles. Don't be afraid to ask your clinic when you phone the reason for not being prescribed clomid and how it works. Best of luck lovely xxx

[Amelia2018 in reply to Positive2022]

Thankyou Hun , Gynacoligy said I can’t get it unless I see them but iam not Waiting while March , that’s when iam meant to be having surgery xxx
