Clomid and Miscarriage?

I took clomid for about a 6 month span of time when I was about 20-21. Unfortunetly,it did not work for me.However,I had a very close friend that took clomid for only a month before becoming pregnant with identicle twin boys. She carried the babies to 35 weeks (about)which a normal twin gestation. They were born healthy and are now VERY vibrant healthy 6 year olds. Neither myself or my friend had any ill side effects. All I can really tell you is to be patient. I was not able to get pregnant at that time. I am a firm believer in the fact that it will happen when it is meant to happen. I am now the mother of a pretty healthy 4 1/2 year old,conceived without any drugs about 2 years after taking the course of clomid.I hope that things work out very well for you.

I took clomid for a few months in 2003 and became pregnant. I found out January 30th 2004. I had a miscarriage on March 8th, 2004. The doctors put me back on clomid after a couple month break after the miscarriage. I took one dose and got pregnant again. That time it was successful and I delivered a full term (one week late even) healthy boy on March 6, 2005. I did not experience any side effects of the drug. In my opinion, it is worth the risks because you could have a miscarriage even if you didn't use the drugs. Just take your time and be patient. It will all work out in the end.

Good luck,
S.

Hi C.. I conceived my first son by clomid and IUI. He was my first pregnancy and it was successful. I am currently pregnant again. We did use clomid for this pregnancy. I'll keep you updated.

There are some side effects but different people experience diffeent things. With my first, I had double vision at night. I was on it for 3 1/2yrs on and off. This time, I only used it for 1 cycle and I had no side effects. It can make you moody, gain weight, gie you headahes, etc.

There are always risks to anything you take....even tylenol. But to me personally, anything worth having is worth the risk.

Hope this helps.

I have not taken clomid myself, but a coworker did, and found out she was pregnant with triplets after her first round! I haven't heard of any negative side effects.

After trying to get pregnant for 18 months (in 2004), I took one round of Clomid and got pregnant with twins! I am happy to report that I had no side effects from the Clomid and had a very successful twin pregnancy, delivering two full term twin boys. Based on what I remember, I don't think the miscarriage rate from taking Clomid is any higher than miscarriage rate from someone who conceived "naturally." Good luck!!

I've had experience with clomid but unfortunately it did not help me get pregnant. The three months I did try it though, I threw up just 30 minutes after taking it every single time. So, make sure that the time you take it (it has to be the same time every day) is a time when you're going to be normally at home :) It has a different effect on everybody, you may not have that reaction, but I know I did!

C., I am on my first cycle of clomid. I was nervous too about the miscarriages. I am just hoping for a positive pregnancy test this month! I wish you the best of luck! Keep me updated. I didn't really feel any side effects besided moodiness.

I had a problem with early miscarriage and taking clomid actually helped me conceive my first child {now 6} and I have had no problems conceiving my other 3. I hope this gives hope. Good Luck.

C.,
I took clomid for almost 1 and 1/2 years. I finally went to a fertility specialist, instead of my regular OB, and she increased he dosage to 100 mg. With the help of this increased dosage and 2 IUIs later I was pregnant. I carried my daughter full term with no difficulties. Without clomid and the IUI procedure, I don't think I would ever become a mom. I hope this helps.
