Hi,
Ovamit (also known as
Clomifene) is a medication commonly used to stimulate ovulation in women with
fertility problems. It works by blocking estrogen receptors in the brain, which stimulates the release of
follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and
luteinizing hormone (LH), which in turn stimulates the ovaries to produce and release eggs.
While hot flashes,
headaches, and bloating are common side effects of Ovamit, it is important to note that not everyone will experience these symptoms. Hot flashes are a common side effect of Ovamit, as the medication can cause fluctuations in estrogen levels in the body. Headaches and bloating may also occur due to hormonal changes caused by the medication.
If you are experiencing severe symptoms, it is important to speak with your doctor, as they may be able to adjust your dosage or provide other treatments to help alleviate your discomfort. In general, these symptoms should subside once you have completed your course of medication. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to seek medical attention, as they may be a sign of a more serious condition.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
