Rash from Clomid?

[smc246]

I just finished taking Clomid as I am trying to get pregnant.  I have since developed a rash on my face--red bumps--they don't itch or hurt and it is not acne.  Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this.  Thanks.

Hello,
Since the rash appeared after taking Clomid, so it looks like an allergic reaction to the medicine. Take some oral antihistaminics like Benadryl. You can also apply some calamine lotion on the hands as it helps in soothing the skin.

I suggest you to get this evaluated from a dermatologist if the symptoms persist and get acne ruled out.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

Hi Yes, i have just finished my third round of clomid and I noticed a few days ago a rash on my right breast. I have never had this before, I am thinking it could be from the clomid too? Rash is listed as a side effect.
