and be sick???

I posted this on the clomid board but no one answered so I thought maybe some one over hear might know.


I have a horrible summer cold and was wondering if anyone knew if it was ok to start taking clomid while you are sick. I am here at work wishing I wasn't. If anyone knows please let me know. Thanks

Hey Kelly,

I don't know about taking Clomid when sick... but I'm guessing it would be okay. I've been prescribed it to start taking with my next cycle (if this one doesn't do the trick). I'd give your dr. office a call and ask...see what they say.

Hopefully they'll give you an ok and you'll be able to start and end pg in no time!!!!

GL!!!!

It *should* be okay. I'm assuming, of course, that your summer cold will be gone by the time you ovulate. If you're in need of any cold meds or other meds, though, I would think it might be a good thing to wait. Being sick can put additional stresses on your body... if in doubt, call your doctor and see what they have to say.

Good luck!

Hi. I took Clomid for several months TTCing my son, and I'm sure that I was sick during some of that time. I never had a problem with it. Maybe you should call your doctor, just for peace of mind?

Good luck!
