Clomid

I took clomid for three months. It causes hot flashes and severe stabbing pain in your lower abdomen. Your doctor can do an ultrasound right before you would be ovulating and make sure you are releasing several eggs (not too many ) and adjust your dosage accordingly. This is a serious drug and you need to be monitored. It can cause an increased risk of ovarion cancer later in life. I would use this with ovulation test kits to make sure you have sex at the right time.
