Days 2-6 of Clomid use often see the onset of certain side effects. Expect mild hot flashes, akin to menopause symptoms. These usually subside once you finish your Clomid cycle.
You might also experience headaches, ranging from mild to moderate in intensity. Over-the-counter pain relievers can usually manage this discomfort. Keep yourself hydrated; this can help alleviate headache severity.
Mood swings are another possibility. Some women report increased irritability or emotional sensitivity. Open communication with your partner and support system can help navigate this.
Visual disturbances, such as blurred vision or light sensitivity, are less common but should be reported to your doctor immediately. This warrants close monitoring.
Ovarian enlargement is a potential side effect. Your doctor will monitor this through ultrasounds. While usually temporary, significant enlargement requires medical attention.
Finally, nausea and bloating are possible. Eating small, frequent meals and avoiding greasy foods can aid digestion and reduce discomfort.
