Clomid and late ovulation?

I'm hoping someone has had a similar experience and can offer me some hope! This is my first round of clomid, and I'm on CD 21, with no positive OPK yet! I started testing right after AF, since I thought I might ovulate sooner with the Clomid. When I got to around CD 13-14, I started doing 2 OPKs a day. Still nothing as of yesterday (too early to test yet today). Before Clomid, my cycles were very long and irregular, and if I ovulated, it was usually in CD 30+.

DH and I have been DTD every 2-3 days, since CD11, just in case and to have a good supply at all times. We planned on a couple of days in a row once the +OPK came, but still waiting for that. I'm so frustrated because it has been taking us so long with my long cycles. Anyone else take Clomid and ovulate late in the cycle?

Hi!

I was on clomid last month, and I ended up ovulating on day 23. My doctor had me take some blood tests on CD21 b/c I still hadn't gotten a +OPK, and she thought the cycle was shot. However, I ended up getting a +OPK on CD23. My cycles are very long and irregular like yours.

Thanks Karlita - that makes me feel better! :fx: it will show up positive soon!

Feeling very very crampy today... hoping it's a good sign of ovulation! I'll know later when I test!

Fingers crossed!! Xxx

Good luck!!!!! *blue dust*

Anything new yet?

Ugh, still no +OPK... I am getting really frustrated! If I don't O this cycle, with the Clomid, I guess it's back to dr. for me. We've still been DTD pretty much every other day, so I guess if the OPKs missed it, hopefully we had it covered... so sick of the "waiting game" for everything! I'll still keep testing until I either get a +OPK or get AF. Thanks for checking in though - I'm glad I have a place to vent and have support through all of this! :happy:

that can be normal, just carry on.

I am having the same issue here. I usually O 14-15 and it is my first cycle on Clomid. I've been having OPK's (3rd pee in the morning) almost as dark as the control line for 5 days now! It becomes faint throughout the day, then bang, 25% away from being positive in the morning again! It is day 19 and I'm not sure what's happening :( Starting to worry Clomid will not allow me to ovulate at all. :tissue:As we are trying for girl I am trying not to go overkill with our BD attempts. I hope that if I already O'ed and missed the surge, at least we did it on the right day. Wish you luck with your sway.
