Today is Cycle Day 3. It is Monday so my reproductive specialist’s office is open. I got a phone call from one of her nurses this morning. My Clomid has been ordered and picked up. Because I will be doing a little more aggressive treatment this month, she, we will call her Doctor M, has me doing what is called a Hybrid Treatment. I will take two pills of Clomid, once a day for five days, starting tonight. On Cycle Day 8, I will begin taking injections of Follistim. Then, rather than doing the ultra sound on day 10 or 11, we will be doing it on day 13.
When I took Clomid last month, the main side effects I suffered were dizziness and mood swings. It is recommended to take at night, before you head to bed. I was very easily frustrated and annoyed, constantly. My poor husband. We will see how I respond to this round of Clomid.
