hi,
I took clomid for a year, only 50 mg though.  i was a moody the first few months i took it, but they never upped the dose so my body finally got used to it after a few months.  of course by then i had gained 20 pounds and and night sweats and mood swings all the time.  
Anyway, my doctors never said anything about it being a problem to be taking it so long.  I obviously don't know what your underlying problem is...  (if there is one)  mine is stage 4 endometriosis.  i  have just finished my first cycle of ivf.  i know its expensive and time consuming, but i think that it actually worked. I have been trying actively for two years to have a baby, but for the last six i wasn't not trying  if that makes sense.  
I tend to babble on  but my point is...  i don't think it would be harmful if you took clomid one more  cycle,  but you might want to start thinking of other options is possible.  ivf with a blastocyst transfer on day 5 has close to a 60% success rate per cycle.  ( at my clinic anyway) . thats alot higher thant the 20 to 25% each month naturally.  
waiting til monday to find out if mine worked.  ( something tells me it did :))

My doctor said that if it hasn't worked by the 6th round of Clomid, then it won't and I'm not sure specifically, but it can do something to your cervix or uterus.  I tried Clomid for 5 months, then we decided to get tested.  It ended up that we had a male factor that was causing our infertility.  But look at the last post, she got pregnant on the 6th round, so who knows!!  Best of luck to you all.

I took Clomid for 6 months and got pregnant (with triplets) on the 6th month.  I felt like **** having to take it so long, but it's all worth it now!
