Clomid and late ovulation

[lil_schelle]

Hi everyone !! Ihave not posted in a while.I have been taking a break. I started clomid again this month June 10th cycle day 5. I normaly have a 27-29 day cycle and ovulate on cd 14. i use opk and usually they start showing positive around cd12 . Today is cd 15 but so far they all have been negative. Is it normal to ovulate late on clomid ? and if so how late
Thanks in advance
April

Yes, it's common for Clomid to delay your ovulation, especially if you take it starting day 5.  I was totally panicking the 1st time I took it because I thought it messed me up and I would never O!  Before taking Clomid, I had short cycles and would ususally get a +OPK around day 11 or 12, but for the 4 cycles I was on it, I didn't get a +OPK until day 15 or 16.  Have you been monitoring your temps too?  What about your doctor, will they be doing any type of ultrasound?  I know my doctor didn't do much monitoring of me, so I was sort of on my own too.  Just hang in there and you should be OK.

Actually I was on Clomid and I ovulated late on CD 18 which I had took the OPK and was 2-dark lines I got so excited and freaked out and called my doc I went in for LH Surge Blood work and Confirmed I was ovulating. I had my first IUI Insemination on June 10, very anxious to know next week if I will be preganant. The wait is killing me but hopefully it works the first time

Thanks you all  so much for the info. I hope i get my +opk soon.Today is cd 15 and its still negative.Is it safe to ovulate this late in my cycle?

Yeah, it's totally fine to ovulate a little later than normal ;-) I too ovulated late on clomid. In a natural cycle, I usually get a positive OPK on CD12 or 13, but with clomid, not until CD15. Good luck this cycle!

Is it ever to late in a cycle to ovulate? If i ovulate late are my eggs still ok?
