Clomid and spotting

little_e · Aug 25th, 2009, 00:02 AM

I hope someone can help me. This is my first cycle with clomid. I ovulated on CD16. On CD 26 or DPO 10 I started to spot. Today CD31 or DPO 16, still the same. What do I do??? I did three pregnancy tests and the one today is extremely faint positive... I am getting lots of cramps now also

My normal cycle is 33 days long and I do ovulate normally on my own. Dr wants to try clomid because I had two miscarriages now. Each one took one year to conceive...

CD 21's progesterone level was a healthy 109... Can't see my specialist for another 6 days because he is away... Can anyone help?

Hi, i am on my first cycle of clomid, but not had any spotting.. though only on dpo 4, if you got a faint line then a line is a line! what type of test did you use? try again tomorrow morning I think it sounds positive to me...

Thanks Kiki09, the spotting turned into painful flow of red period

I guess the prolonged spotting was a side effect from clomid... i am so upset right now

DH thinks we did achieve a pregnancy but didn't stick

why...........

I am sorry hun, that is hard to take, clomid is known to give you spotting and affect your cycle, your DH is trying to be positive, his way of dealing with the frustration maybe, dont give up, clomid has lots of success stories, sometimes it just takes a few goes on clomid...that is what I keep telling myself

Yea, just all new at this clomid thing. Now I know what to expect I won't be so all over the place next time run. I am ready for round 2! :-)

Thanks for your lovely words, it's probably the hormones but reading it makes me cry! I hope to have a success story one day.... So you are on your first round right now too?

Can you tell me your story or can you tell me where to find your story here at babyandbump?

I blame all my emotional meltdowns on the clomid

!!

TTC is so hard, we just have to keep believing...

I will pm you my story

I'm exactly the same hun.....first round of clomid, 2 x mc's and am spotting way beyond when my AF is usually due. I've had nothing but neg tests.

I'm sorry AF has turned up for you, after a faint positive. I'm guessing it was maybe a failed implantation...which is a lot more common than people imagine. My FS said he expects it in up to 60% of cycles.

My test have been totally negative...other than some horrendous evaps!

Hope round 2 is more successful for you x

Thanks Lyns! Good to know there are others in the same boat and can share some knowledge. I wonder why implantation fails

Well, AF just turned up for me too, so were onto round 2 together. Lots of luck sweetie x

Hi Little_e, just wondered how you were doing? re clomid, have a look at the clomid symptom thread and the clomid thread in LTTC, lots of great support and peoples experiences on there...
