You really should be under the supervision of a dr. Clomid is notorious for causing cysts. If not monitored by u/s you can really cause yourself irrepairable harm. I had to be taken off of it due to cysts.

I don't think you can get chlomid w/o a prescription.  They generally start you with 50 mg.

yeah but my Husband has also been prescribed with clomid  so

Hi Diana
Has your DH had any side effects with taking Clomid? Have you guys noticed a change in his SA since he's been taking it. My DH is on clomid and I'm afraif they'll be taking him off soon because of side effects. You should ask your RE for a prescription for your self. Good luck :)

No not any significant side effects.DH takes clomid every alternative night .my husband was non-obstructive azoospermic..no sperm was found in semen ananlysis ...sperm was extracted throught  tesa procedure --we also went throuh ivf becoz of this male  factor but the ivf failed and after that failure we did some researches and tried accupuncture ,vitamins(super nutritious men's simply one,l-arginine,l-lysene,flax seed oil,omega 3,vitamin c 500,vitamin e 400 iu ,l-carnitine,clomid every alternative day)  and after doing all this for last 4/5 months in his recent semen analysis everything is perfect rather more than normal..so hope now we concieve naturally.. good luck...hope this helps u..any qsn feel free to ask

DH goes Tuesday for SA. He's only been on Clomid and a male vitamin since June 2nd. He's been having floaters in his side vision for a few weeks now at night time from the Clomid. I called my RE and now he's taking 50mg every other day instead of everyday. If his SA hasn't changed at all they are taking him off Clomid. I'm "hoping" something has changed and his side effects go away! That is amazing about your DH. Do you have DH taking a bunch of pills a day? I can barely get mine to take 2 a day. Best of luck to you guys. I hope you get your baby soon with those results :)
