Side-Effects from Menopur/Bravelle
Hello gang! Wondering if anyone can tell me about their side effects from their meds? I started this cycle with Clomid 100mg and Menopur 75iu and was switched to Bravelle 75iu yesterday (cd12). I have had the night sweats and headaches which I am blaming the Clomid for (I did 5 clomid cycles Dec08-April09 and had the same symptoms). My newest however is the inability to sleep. For example, its after 1 a.m. here
 . I started my round of meds last Monday which is about when this started. Has anyone else had problems sleeping????? Last week I thought I was just so excited to finally being able to start IUI that I was just anxious but its continued. You would think I would eventually get so tired I would just crash. Any thoughts???

With clomid I was hot all the time. The sleeping bad started with me with the Ovidrel shot every time. I do not get a rested sleep.
Sorry you have some of the nasty side effects too.

I have done 2 cycles with clomid and bravelle. The insomnia was EPIC! Not sure which one was exactly causing it but for me it got worse and worse over the course of meds. In fact, I plan on asking for Ambien during my next cycle because being a crazy emotional wreck AND tired is not a good combo.

Last night was finally my night to crash. I slept all night long. The only problem is that I didnt get enough of it
 I'm sure I wont sleep tonight however since I have my u/s tomorrow morning.
