question about clomid

by lheid, Feb 28, 2008 01:17PM
alright... so i have posted on here a couple of times. my doc put me on provera, and clomid to help me somewhat regulate. well, i took the provera, and had my period, and i started taking my clomid on feb 23. last night was my last pill, and all night last night and all day today i have a cramps in my lower abdomin (abdomen). now my question is, is this a good sign that i might be getting ready to ovulate? and if so, when should i start using my opk's?

I would start using the opk's.....just so you don't miss the surge.....do you temp as well?  This will  help you know if you ovulated.  It is a little early for you to have ovulated....you would usually ovulate 5-12 days after your last pill....good luck

thank you... my dr didnt let me know any of this information. i am not familiar with temping... i am looking to up on mymontlycycles.com. i have pcos, and have very irregular periods... so i was not sure because i have no clue how long my cycles are because they are few and far in between.

I was on clomid in january and I used the OPK as soon as I was done with the pills.  I didn't want to miss my LH surge.  Usually people take clomid on cycles 3-7, or 5-9.  So if you just finished taking your pills it probably to early to ovulate.  Are they going to do sonos on you to make sure your follicles are maturing properly?  Thats what I had done.  I ovulated on cycle day18.  Good luck.

thank you... they just told me to track it with opk's, so i dont think they are going to do one just yet... what are some signs that i am going to ovulate soon? im sorry... im new at this.. i never really cared much before, but now i have no choice but to care. we are ttc as soon as possible.

The  opk showed when I was ovulating.  We had an IUI and we were pregnant.  Good luck.
