clomid, progesterone, and estrogen pills

Last month I was placed on clomid and progesterone pills. I ovulated but didn't get pregnant. My doctor stated that if I ovulated and didn't get pregnant that she was goin g to prescribe me estrogen pills to thicken my uterine walls. I did the clomid cycle and estrogen pills. Today I started my progesterone pills. Saturday I started experience lower back pain. I think I ovulated early also. I usually have ovulation on 16 day of luteal phase. I want to know if these symptoms I am having are side effects of medications? I'm currently taking. I forgot to mention I'm diagnosis with PCOS and currently lost 33 lbs. to ovulate but only ovulated one time since weight lost that's why I'm currently taking these medications.

Hi, I have PCO and only get my period approx. three x a year, I am about to go on Clomid, what would you advise in conjunction? I thought, pre seed, Rubatusum (for cervical mucus) and perhaps progesterone cream?

It is hard to answer this question with certainty. Sometimes ovulation can be painful, perhaps a bit moreso when on clomid. If you have not been ovulating regularly, but ovulated this month on clomid, this may explain your symptoms. I would recommend discussing with your physician when you are in the midst of fertility treatment - your provider will be much more familiar with your case than we can ever be. We hope things work out for you!
