Have done 1 round with femara so far and RE said I responded much better than with the clomid and it was so nice to have no crazy headaches or cramping! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1037501 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 18:22:42 +0000 meganmp 1037501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had none with it!

Clomid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1037405 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 18:00:52 +0000 Mrs. Polish 1037405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had zero side effects.

You all have me optimistic that I won't be a total nutcase next month :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1036108 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 10:49:43 +0000 justdarling 1036108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an uncommon side effect. I got muscle stiffness. Other than that, I didn't have any other side effects. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1035442 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 06:27:10 +0000 ShootingStar 1035442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had none with Femara. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1035342 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 00:06:13 +0000 BSB 1035342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had some tummy issues while I was on femera. The nurse was concerned because she didn't ever hear of that side effect before, so maybe it wasn't because of the femera. </p> <p>@Happygal: Yeah, I do remember feeling myself ovulate while on femera. Normally I never do. Although, I wonder if it's because my body was releasing more eggs instead of the usual one.</p> <p>Also, I don't know if I could tease out the effects of femera versus the HCG trigger shot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1035235 Wed, 21 Aug 2013 21:35:26 +0000 Happygal 1035235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just finished one cycle on it and had no side effects, except there were stronger ovulation sensations. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1035232 Wed, 21 Aug 2013 21:34:57 +0000 ladybee 1035232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@alie: I had several side effects on Clomid and none on the generic Femara. The only thing I could say is that I could really feel ovulation but it wasn't bad. We got our BFP our first cycle so maybe it would have gotten worse? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-femaraletrozole-side-effects#post-1035209 Wed, 21 Aug 2013 21:20:33 +0000 fairefaire 1035209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Getting excited/anxious about our first IUI next month, and I'd love to hear about others' experiences using Letrozole or Femara. </p> <p>It's been quite a while since we did our Clomid rounds and I'd almost forgotten about the side effects... but earlier today I remembered the time I broke down sobbing because a character on a soap opera was pregnant, and I wasn't. I mean... REALLY. I was sobbing like someone had just run over my pet with their car, it was that intense. And when my husband asked what was wrong, I had to explain through the sobs, all while laughing at myself for how stupid I sounded. I obviously wasn't sane, and I knew it, but I couldn't help it! </p> <p>I cried SO MUCH those three months (not always as intense as above, but still...); I'm curious if Letrozole will cause me to have similar Crazy Crying Lady bouts. Or some other side effect I should be prepared for? </p>
