Hey girls...for those of you that have taken/are taking Clomid, did you notice hot flashes after O? I O'd five days ago and two of the past few nights, I've woken up HOT!! Normally my temps during this time are in the mid 98's but three days ago it was 99.3 and today's was 99.1. I know it isn't pregnancy related because it's way too early for that...and to be honest, I don't have a good feeling about this cycle anyway. Just wondering if you guys experienced them after O...they blow!! :(

Awww...sorry you're experiencing the hot flashes :(
I had them but only while I was taking clomid. They are not fun at any time! Good luck! I hope you get a + OPK!

Thanks V! I did get positive OPK's on CD 12 and 13 and O'd on day 13. But I'm still hot flashin'! :) And it's only at night and wakes me up...during the day I'm fine! Ugh...

beatie - I did research on this just regarding hot flashes on Clomid and all of the responses I got were women having hot flashes while actually on Clomid - usually not after.  Maybe it was just a fluke thing? 

Glad to see that you had a pretty early O on Clomid - I have heard that it usually pushes ovulation back for some people.

I hated hot flashes - I am not looking forward to them again especially since I am going up to 100mg!!!  Time to bring out the fans at night!!! :)

Thanks C! Yeah I o'd pretty much the same time I normally do...anywhere from CD 11 to 13. I had actually hoped it would push it back a couple days to allow the egg to mature more but nope...my body like to go early apparently! I didn't really get any flashes during the pill phase but now at 3 and 5 DPO I get them. I'm hoping they were flukes and they won't continue!!! :)

I got hot flashes the week AFTER taking Clomid...not the week of. It wasn't the week of O but since I got them a week after I wouldn't be surprised if you were experiencing the same thing. The side effects can hit you whenever since it is still in your system. GL! That is a HIGH temp!!!

I'm such a dork! I missed that part that you said you O'd. I'm glad you did :) I hope the hot flashes go away.

Alison - part of the reason they are high is because I temp vaginally. I'm a mouth breather at night so I have to. So on average they are higher anyway. But they've never been above 98.7. Good to know you had them the week after...and that they go AWAY!! :)

I don't know about going away ;-) Not to scare you but I have had more hot flashes since being pregnant than I did when I was on Clomid. We had a big rainstorm yesterday and I had to go grocery shopping...it was freezing outside but I was sweating in the car and had the a/c on full blast! Ha...good thing I was the only one in the car!
