No AF yet...what to do about starting Clomid...

Alright here is my dilemma.  I am on day 29 and no AF.  I took a FRER yesterday and much to my dismay it was a BFN.  Now, I took 100 mg of clomid this cycle.  I was annovulitory(sorry poor spelling)previously, hence the clomid.  I went in on day 20 for my progesterone check and I was 6.9, the doctor said he was pleased with that (which kinda confused me because I was under the impression we were suppose to be higher.)  Anywhoo...should AF not show up, do I make another arbitrary day 5 for my cycle like I had to do last month?

I always took clomid on the second day of my cycle, after my ultrasound and blood work. Are your cycles irregular?

I am very irregular.  In Decemeber, my regular MD did a progesterone challenge just to assure us I could menstrate.  It worked fine.  I had a normal 3 day period.  That is about typical length when I have it.  It comes and goes as it pleases.  Never more than 2-3 times a year though.  This does offer some complications when trying to concieve (conceive).  My OB specialist had me take 100mg clomid days 5-9....

I believe that clomid will help you with your cycle - good luck. I am also a firm believer in acupunture - it helped me with my period and ovulation cycles - it is very regular and not as painful.

I thought about trying acupuncture.  Is it expensive?

it all depends - mine costs $75 per visit. But I heard that there are places where they charge $95 per visit. I believe that this is money well spent ;-)
