Clomid side effects

Post by megpit08 »

I am on my 2nd round of 50mg clomid. Took it from 5-9 of my cycle. I am now 11/12 days past ovulation awaiting my period anytime. For the last 4 days I have been having backache (I never get any on an usual cycle), menstrual cramps (again never 4 days before period), headache, nausea, dizziness, heavy/sore breasts. How long do clomid symptoms last in a cycle?

Hello. Clomid can often change the symptoms you feel with your menstrual cycle. Some of the symptoms you're experiencing are also similar to what women feel in pregnancy. I would recommend that you take a home pregnancy test if you don't get your period in a few days.

Thanks for the response Doctor. Turns out it was PMS, my period started later than usual :(
