Clomid, cramping, lower abdominal pain

I am on my first cycle of clomid (day 22) and I have been having some intense lower abdominal pain, bloating, and cramping.  It seems to get worse as the day progresses (in the morning's it doesn't hurt as bad).  It was really bad yesterday (day 21) and my husband and I couldn't even have sex because I could feel a pressure/pain during it.  Is this normal??  I read somewhere that taking clomid can cause cysts on your ovaries...should I go to the doctor.  My breast are starting to feel tender as well, so maybe it is just mentral pain.  But I have never had this type of mentral pain before (but then again I don't get a regular period either...)

Hi.  I'm on my 3rd cycle of clomid.  I had two at 50mg & this one was 100mg.  I didn't have any negative symptoms the first two cycles, but this time I had a lot of heaviness in my stomach, like I really felt my ovaries working.  That's the only way I can describe it.  My ovaries hurt !  My doctor said it was normal, so I didn't worry.  The only thing that concerns me is that you said you had pain when bd'ing.  I've never personally had an ovarian cyst, but you might feel better if you give your doctor a call.  She/he can at least alleviate your concerns :)  Good luck !

Your symptoms are normal. A great thread to see here is "What cycle of clomid are you on? Any side effects?" The ladies there have  a lot of experience and good advice. The intense achey (achy)-nes s you feel in th epelvic region during BD is also something I've had. I am on my 2nd round now and last cycle I had no side effects while taking the pills, but as O approached and especially after O I had three days of intense cramps in my legs, and strange feelings in my uterus. I know it was all the hormones... manyother ladies on that thread have had the few days of cramp/ache as you described. Worse at night than the morning. If it doesn't go away in a few days, then maybe you can call your dr. But your breasts will get super sore too. It's hard because lots of the symptoms are pregnancy symptoms so it can be tricky. HANG IN THERE! Good luck SSBD to you!

Hi everyone, I am cd 21 and this is also my first cycle on clomid 50 mg days 5-9.  I had an IUI on cd 16.  I have been having light cramping for a few days on and off and my lower back has been aching.  My breast have also been sore on and off - today they are really sore.  I am trying not to over analyze my symptoms since I still have just over 1 week before i can take a pregnancy test.  Good luck to all of you!
