Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Support Group

Hello all! I have joined this support group because I feel as though I have no where else to turn. None of my friends are understadning what I am going through and it's really hard to explain. My husband and I have been trying to concieve for a year now. I'm on my second cycle of clomid and I don't think that it worked. But it's side effects are really decieving. I wake up every morning sick to my stomach. My breasts are really tender, have been for over a week now. The headaches are aweful! I have one of those everyday as well. My vision has been blurry and I gained weight. And also lost a significant amount of hair and cramps on and off all day. Has anyone else had this many side effects with clomid? I know that everyone says that you shouldn't be stressed out when you're trying to concieve, but honestly, how can you not? I don't know if taking Clomid is really worth it if I'm not getting pregnant. I don't know if my body thinks it is or not either. Has anyone else taken clomid and concieved with PCOS and taking metformin 1500mg/d?? THANKS!!!

I had horrible side effects on chlomid...migraines and insane hot flashes...unfortunately it did not work for me...but it does for many so dont give up. Are you on metformin also?

I too had numerous side effects,but my hubby would say the worst was the insane mood swings. It took me 8 mths of taking Clomid and met. to conceive. Just hang in there!!!! The side effects of taking it become lost in the wind when you take that test and it's positive!!
