I have been on Clomid the past 6 cycles. This is my first cycle without it, Dr. thought it would be a good idea to give my uterus a 6-12 month break. I heard that Clomid stays in your system 1-2 cycles after you stop taking it. Has anyone else heard that? I'm just wondering if that is true. Thank you for any input.

I'm not sure either, I am 34 and have a 10 year old son, and started trying for #2 when he was 3. After a few years and alot of tests, the doctor put me on clomid. I was on it, off and on for 3 years under fertility doctors guidence. I have been off the clomid for a year now, (I gave up) THEN I found out Sept 9th I was pregnant, now I am 15 weeks and almost certain its twins. I'd like for someone to tell us how long it stays in your system also. Have a good day!

It's not that Climid stays in your system, it is more like the effects of Clomid ( wild, unnatural hormones) can last for a couple months after quiting. Your body has been in an unnatural state for half a year, with chemically induced surges, etc. It may take a little time for that to calm down to normal. I haven't heard of a doc that would prescribe Clomid for more then a 6 month trial, simply because of the risks involved with continued use.

Thank you for your responses. If I don't get pregnant in the next year my Dr wants me to try the Clomid one more time. Although I 'feel" pregnant this month. I should wait to test until at least Friday. My b___st are sore and I am feeling sick to my stomach. I guess we will see...I wonder if it could be multiples....I'll keep you posted and again thank you for your opinions

Well, here's an update! This was my first cycle without Clomid and I got a BFP at 9 DPO. And have been having all of the symptoms since then. I'm not really sure what to think. I have NEVER had a BFP so early nor symptoms this early. Both of my other pregnancies I got my BFP 2 days after AF was supposed to be here. Also I alwasy start with symptoms at 6 wks pregnant. I go to the Dr in 2 wks...I'll keep you posted.
