Eggwhite CM

Taking clomid had positive OPK on cycle days 14, 16, and 17. Was neg on cycle day 18. Now on cycle day 27 having lots of eggwhite CM. What is going on? Has anyone had similar issues?

Hi!
It is common to have a positive OPK on more than one day in the cycle.  It is a good idea to stop testing once you get the first positive, because otherwise it becomes difficult to interpret the results.  If you took Clomid on CDs 5-9, and positive OPK on day 14 is perfect.  That should put your period due on CD 30.  IF you don't have a period, do a pregnancy test.  If you do have your period on time, that is additional confirmation that the Clomid worked properly.  Another test to do is a CD 21 progesterone level.

Good luck!
