Not ovulating

I just found out that I am not and have not been ovulating for several months. This past month  I took Clomid, but still didn't ovulate.  Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, how did you remedy the situation?  I'll take Clomid again once I start my period again, but if that doesn't work, what else do they/can they do?  Thanks.

I am new to all of this too.  I went about 9 months w/o having my period.  Took Metformin for 4 months....no period, just BAD diarrhea!!!  Dr. prescribed Provera.  4 days after last pill, got my period then started Clomid 50mg on days 5-9.  I took OPK's from cycle day 12-23, all negative test results.  Not sure if I ovulated, very doubtful.  Husband and i have had sex every other day for about 3 weeks now.  It's too early to test but I doubt I'm pregnant.  We also used pre-seed which we like a lot.  This whole process is very frustrating!!  I'm 29 and would like to get pregnant sooner rather than later.  I hope we all have good luck!!!

Help. I HATE THIS!! My wife only has a period once every two or three months. When I entered this into the ovulation calculator on WEBMD, it says that she is not ovulating! Please tell me this is not true!!

I have tried clomid for 6 months and then a pill for women with breast cancer which the sideeffect is to ovulate.  I have about 20 follicules(eggs) in each ovary so I have PCOS.  I have tried ovulation induction once in Mexico because is cheaper but didn't work.  I started a second tretment but my eggs never matured.  I am so desperate and disapointed.  Now I have to wait another month to start a new treatment.  I have one daughter who is 4 yrs old but want a second.  I guess the key is never to give up.

I am having the same problem. I started Clomid on Oct. 8, 2010 and should have ovulated between 10/17/2010 and 10/22/2010. I have taken 3 OPK's and they have all been negative so far. I am not sure what to do now.

I went to the GN today, and also told me I am not, and have not been ovulating. I told him that I have been getting a positive every month on an OPK. He said that OPK's only detects the surge that your body is ready to ovulate. But, it does not detect ovulation iself. Your body may be ready to ovulate, the egg may not release. I am scheduled for the salpingogram to check out what is really going on, with blockage. But, he did determine I more than likely have endometriosis as well.
