About Your Medication....

Clomiphene (KLOE-mi-feen) aka CLOMID

Common Uses: This medicine is a fertility agent used to stimulate ovuation in women who want to become pregnant. It may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Possible Side Effects: that may go away during treatment (only may?!), include hot flashes, nausea, vomiting, breast tenderness, dizziness, lightheadedness, headache, or mood changes. Check with your doctor as soon as possible if you experience stomach or pelvic pain, bloating, or blurred vision.


Um... Doesn't this all just sound so fun? And exactly like being pregnant?! Maybe it's good practice. Mood changes is in bold as pretty sure that's been my most prevalent side effect. So if you've had contact with me this past week and I've been... angry, crazy, annoyed, or anything, don't worry, it's just the medication speaking. We'll see how it goes :) Wish us luck!

Blech. I hope that it works, because if you're going to be nauseated and moody, it should be because you're pregnant! *hugs*
