Hi. I took two cycles of Clomid last year (2008), got pregnant and miscarried both times. One miscarriage at 3 weeks and one at 9 weeks. My waist and stomach got really bloated on clomid. I felt terrible from the bloating (my stomach is normally pretty flat). None of my pants fit. It took months for it to go away. My doctor switched me to injectibles (FSH) since I miscarried both times on Clomid. I just finished my first cycle of FSH & IUI and I feel great. No weight gain or side effects so far. Will take HPT in a few days. In my opinion, you will not loose the weight quickly. I think it will take some time for your weight to normalize after Clomid. Have a great time on your trip!
yeah ive been on clomid 4 months and my belly looks pregnant, im usually a size ten australian and now im a big size 12 australian size... i think we will have to work on getting the weight off. ive used clomid to get pregnant with my 20mth old and was only on it two months and gained weight then also. have a great holiday.
I am so glad jmt31 posted this question. I noticed I've gained weight as well. My belly looked like I was pregnant and I had to stop myself from thinking that the possibilty was even there. Oh my goodness, I feel better knowing it is common! jmt31-have a really great time in the Bahamas! Could you just buy two new swimsuits?? :)
I took clomid from cycle days 5-9 and then gained 4 pounds in two days after finishing the clomid. I run 45-60 minutes three times a week, play tennis several times a week and have a personal trainer twice a week for strength training + eat a healthy clean diet. My trainer was shocked to see the 4 pound gain in two days. I can only think it is the clomid. It makes me wonder how the clinical trials of clomid say only 1% gain weight if all these posts prove otherwise.
I just started Clomid Tuesday. So far, not sure about weight gain or bloated. I'm always bloated (hate it) so right now I can't tell the difference. I'm not really hungry but I've been getting over the flu so not sure what's going on.
So far the side effects for me are super tired and today my ovary that had the cyst on it is starting to hurt. I'm done with these pills on Friday so we'll see.
