It could be a side effect of the drugs or it could be middleschmertz which I realized I had when I got off of Birth control. It is actually abdominal pain occurring at the time of ovulation so if this is the case this could actually be useful as to getting pregnant???? I got the cramps and i'd tell my husband that I thought I was ovulating and did some research and it was exactly what it was and with my second child right when i started cramping i told my hubby and there she was.

Talk to your OB Gyn. Do not self medicate by someone else who is not a professional in the field.

If trying to get pregnant you need to be careful what you take. Normally,tylenol is a safe bet for most people who are pregnant or trying to get pregnant. Also be careful with caffeine consumption when trying to conceive and alcohol consumption. Use a hot water bottle or heating pad. Going for a walk may help also. You uterus is contracting that is why you are having cramps. Swimming my be good also. Good luck.

I don't want to worry you but did you talk to your doctor yet? It could be the drugs but if the pain is excrucuating, it could be an ectopic pregnancy. If you are trying to get pregnant at this moment you really shouldn't take any meds. Call the doctor and see what they suggest. Good luck!

ask your doc if it's okay to take Evening Primrose Oil, which does help me w/ cramping... But if you're taking chlomid and u-storen and ibuprofen isn't working for you... also call your doctor and ask if there are any bad drugs yu shouldn't interact w/ those. A couple of my gfriends took the clomid and both complained of the same symptoms, but i think they took motrin or alleve? not sure, was so long ago... call your doc and ask to talk to the nurse she can prob tell you what you can take, or you can go to Mayoclinic.com and search their system, my nurse friends tell me it's the best med site out there. Good luck, hope you get pregnant soon!!!!! xoxoxoxoxo hugs
