Ok, so as many of you know, I'm going through fertility issues. I seem to get pregnant ok but can't carry the pregnancy. The RE I'm seeing believes this may be due to low progesterone. I finished a 5 day course of 100mg of clomid. I took the last dose on Sunday. Mostly I've had a terrible headache fro almost a week now, major hot flashes and some emotional issues. But, the last 2 days, my tummy has hurt SO bad.
Its not the usual IBS hurt. Its a constant, sharp pain and it was just on the right side, like where your ovary is and now its also on the left side also. I've read on line that the clomid can cause your ovaries to swell a bit and cause some discomfort. In RARE cases it can cause your ovary to burst or fluid to leak into your abdomin. I keep telling myself that everything is fine but the pain is pretty pronouanced and since my hormones are SO out of wack, I just don't know if I'm being resonable or not. At what point do I worry? I have an ultrasound set up for Friday at 8:30 am to check on my ovaries so I don't really want to bother the RE if I'm just over reacting. I'm not ovulating yet according to the ovulation test I did today so I'm afraid if my eggs keep growing, my ovaries may burst out of my tummy?!!
I'm not crying in pain but I also don't think I'll be going to my swimming class tonight that I like so much. My tummy is SO swellon (IBS?) I had to wear a baggy dress today, fat pants even too tight. I'm just so hormonal, I don't even know if I'm making sense anymore which is way I haven't been posting a lot the last few days! Anyone else here ever take clomid or have any comments?
