Can u still Ovulate?

August 23, 2008

I was wondering if u can still O if taking Clomid without getting a + on the OPK? Im on a low dose of Clomid and I O on my own but I took it for a boost but Im wondering if I will still O even if I havent got a + OPK yet? I O everymonth and about the sametime every month but have yet gotten a + since I took the Clomid.

Hey Katie! I ovulated several months without getting a +OPK and that was without Clomid. You may have just missed your surge. Are you temping? I have also read that Clomid can make you ovulate later than normal. Hang in there and keep BDing. Newlywed sex is the greatest! LOL

Thanks LauraM... yes I get + every month but I usually get the + already and tested again today and still havent got a +.

Yes and newlywed BDing is great!

Thanks! I O on my own and I have been having the O pains today but I tested with my OPK and got anther - so who in the hell knows. It is making me really mad and stressing me more then what I am usually stressed.

Katie- I used clomid, always got a surge, but I tested 2 times a day, morning and at night to be sure I did not miss it.. often times I would test inthe morning and have barely any lines and then by 9pm, I would be surging..

Are you testing once a day.. what time?

Q: Does Clomid cause problems with OPKs?

A: Clomid (Serophene/clomiphene citrate) can cause a false positive in OPKs if taken too soon after finishing the prescription. According to most of the manufacturers you should wait at least 3 days before using an OPK. If you take Clomid days 3-7 you can begin testing on day 10. If you take it 5-9, you should wait until day 12.
