    Sad Face Negative OPK's

    I am on CD 13. I have PCOS. I took 50mg Clomid days 3-7. I have been using OPK since day 9 and they have all been negative (there is a faint line but negative nonetheless). Does this mean I didn't or won't ovulate on Clomid? I don't have regular cycles so I don't know how long my cycles typically are because I always have to take meds to have a visit from af. What are your thoughts? Do you think I am out for this month? My DH and I have been DTD every other day since the end of AF; although, my husband is a daily releaser (sorry, TMI).

    I would wait a few more days. Some people ovulate on cd14-17 while on Clomid with POCS. Can you ask the doctor that prescribed the Clomid to also give you a trigger shot if this cycle doesn't work? It will take a bit more monitoring, but a trigger shot is a sure way to ovulate while on Clomid.
    Don't give up! Good luck.

    I got my clomid from my regular obgyn and they do not do trigger shots. Anything beyond clomid is referred to a RE. And my insurance doesn't cover RE's so I really hope we don't have to go there. I am not giving up yet but I am feeling a little blue.

    Thank you Emery! Great answer!!!

    You may just need a higher dosage, Legacy. Or if Clomid ends up not working, you can try Femara - it sometimes helps people who are Clomid resistant.
