Not typically: Clomid (clomiphene) is a drug used in infertility to stimulate ovulation in an effort to help the lady get pregnant. Common side effects include ovarian enlargement, abdominal or pelvic discomfort including distention, bloating, or pain hot flashes. If you're having these or other side effects, you need to notify your doc right away.

It can: A "bad" cycle after Clomid (clomiphene) treatment can happen as there may be more follicle development which leads to a thicker uterine lining to be shed. If the pain is severe though and not controlled by simple measures, see your doctor for an evaluation.

Possibly: Clomid (clomiphene) can cause cramping because the ovaries are larger due to multiple follicles. The menstrual cycle maybe heavier but possibly may be lighter due to the anti-estrogenic effects on the endometrial lining.
