well my luteal phase is 9 days...I am doing accupuncture and its gotten better last cycle it was 13...much better.  I guess I will ask the accupuncturist next week about how it would affect the ovulation ...I dotn want to ovulate later than I already do.

It delayed O for me, but I was taking it on day 6-10.  I O'd on day 18.

is it SAFE/OK to O late on Clomid?  As far as conceiving goes - is there a time limit that it is considered "not as healthy" for a fetus to develop since your last AF occurred, if you have a really late ovulation?  Does that make sense?
Also, at what point do you "trash" one cycle and induce the next (on Provera) because no ovulation occurred?

oh yeah, and the more important thing is not exactly WHEN you O, but that your luteal phase (the time between O and af) is 14 days

I can't actually say it "delayed" it for me, because I never O'd w/o it, but I do not O until anywhere between CD18 - CD21 on it

I would say yes....I'm now on CD 30 and still no AF and no BFP so I'm saying I must have o'ed really late.

hmmm.. I wonder, I already ovulate really late, I wouldn't want to ovulate later.  I usually ovulate on day 18,19 or 20.

I have seen a lot of women say it did for them. It made me earlier, but I know many have said the opposite.
