I would like to begin compiling a comprehensive list of side effects that people can directly trace to Ovulex, so women know what to expect.
Personally, I have to take my nighttime Ovulex earlier than an hour before bed, because it keeps me awake.
Ovulex has had some interesting sexual side effects for me; I become aroused several times a day for no apparant reason and I feel like I'm spending the whole day masturbating. At the beginning, in fact, I was reaching climax far more quickly than I ever had before. See, that's how they really get you pregnant!
Also, I had really bad, 2-week long PMS in my first month with no period, and I don't seem to be moving towards ovulation. I was so cranky I went to a friend's baby's first birthday and hid in the baby's room so I wouldn't have to talk to anyone. We'll see what happens in my second month of Ovulex.

Hey I've been on Ovulex for 10 days and the only negative side effects I've noticed is nausea but yesterday I switched from taking it at bedtime to taking it at 6pm and the nausea is gone this morning.
As far as mood I've been in a really good mood for the last two weeks very upbeat and smiling all the time.
Nothing on the sex drive front but I've been peeing about 3 times more often (probably because I'm drinking more water)
Baby Dust,
Sammy

I have been on Ovulex 7 days now. The first few days I was nauseous but that has passed. I have had the occasional dull ache in my side but it comes and goes. No increased interest in sex but after day 2 – increased CM.
However, I am been alternating between extremely anxious and depressed/weepy. Feels way worse then my normal PMS. I am having nightmares and woke up having a panic attack over the weekend. I am hoping this is temporary and will give the Ovulex some more time. My DH is being supportive and understanding which helps so much!
Anyone feeling depressed or anxious on Ovulex?

Yeah, I've been pretty depressed sometimes... I assume it's my hormones getting all settled, combined with the fact that I'm disappointed I haven't ovulated OR gotten my period yet. Haven't had my period in 6 months, so I guess it'll take more than a month on Ovulex to straighten me out! Here's hoping -

I haven't had any problems with mood swings or depression but I have experienced lots of cramping and twinges. Now that I have started taking my second pill earlier in the day the nausea has completely gone.
Anyone else have gas? My DH thinks it's hilarious that I can beat him hands down on the flatulants. :))

Hey the weirdest thing happened. Based on my last period (May 27th) I should have been Oing last Friday. I had the egg white CM last week and it stopped on Sunday. Well yesterday afternoon I started with an unbelievable pain in my right side like I usually get mid-cycle. It was so bad I could hardly walk and last night while I was sitting on the couch with DH I had such a sharp pain that it made me jump. It was like a popping feeling. So we BD'd just to make sure I wasn't Oing late and this morning the pain is gone. Weird. Maybe the Ovulex made me O late even though I started it only a week ago?

i've been taking ovulex for a month now, and i've noticed two symptoms in particular...one is that I get really bad gas when i have dairy and two is that it's delayed my AF. I'm assuming it's the ovulex since i took a hpt that came up neg. I stopped taking the ovulex today to see of AF comes (i'm 8 days late), and as soon as it does I'll start again.

I haven't really had trouble with gas or bloating. But my DH is on Amberoz and he is experiencing those fun symptoms.
I read that many women are experiencing nausea and I guess I have been lucky with that too. However, I am not really taking mine 12 hours apart. We take our Ovulex and Amberoz about 9:00 pm – before we go to bed. Then we take it again in the morning about 7:00 am. If we didn’t do it then – we would forget all about it so I decided the lesser of 2 evils was to take it earlier rather then forget to take it. When we take it in the morning, it is on an empty stomach – if that helps anyone.
We are really good about drinking water anyway and I read to be sure to stay hydrated. We are drinking at LEAST 75 ounces of water a day.

I started cramping about 2-2.5 weeks after I started taking ovulex and havent stopping cramping since!!! I have cramped everyday!!! I noticed last month about 3-4 days before AF I got real nauseous and HORRBILE diareha. It was horrible. I would get real hungry then the sight of food made me very ill. If I could eat it would only be a few bites. Now that I am 9 DPO and AF is within 3-4 days I am in the same vote. I feel like I am going to throw up right as I am typing this and my intestines are rumbling really bad.
Yes...the gas is horrible!!
I've had some horrible crazy nightmares and I have noticed alot of the same symptoms I had when I was on clomid.
Hope its worth it in the end. OH YEAH....headaches!!!

Oh...I forgot about the sex drive!!! How could I forget that!!! It started the day before O but the day of O I was ready to attack anything that came around me. I was crazy horney!!!!! My bb's had this weird sensation all day long like my nipples wanted to be touched (crazy huh!!!) and my privates were throbbing!!! I must say that has been the only great side effect.
