Is it possible that I'm not ovulating even if the ovulation test is positive?

If you're OPK is positive, and especially if you're having periods about 15 days after a positive, then ovulation is occuring. Getting pregnant for many takes time, and hope you soon will. and if not, best to then seek the services of an RE who can provide more aggressive treatments

I always have positive opk's and af shows about 14-16 days after and I am still not pg either:( I am having a test to check my tubes and HSG tomorrow and I have been seeing an re and he says I am not ovulating...so confusing, I start seeing a new RE in dec! good luck to you!

you can get false positives from using clomid and the lh sticks. You also may need a higer does of clomid.

You can use the ov-watch and not get false positives while using clomid.

Good luck to you

Thank you all for your replies. I am not getting af any time after I get a positive so I guess that means I am not actually ovulating. I do get a little cramping after I take the clomid tho so I thought that was a good sign.

Have you been tested for PCOS?

If you do have PCOS, Clomid alone may not be enough to help you ovulate. It looks like from your pic, you and I might be built quite similarly and it's very common for gals built like us to have trouble TTC and to suffer from PCOS. I've had more than one doc tell me to try to lose weight to increase my chances of conceiving. I did, however, conceive my daughter naturally.

But this time, we know that my husband's sperm is the greater factor of our infertility. Has your hubby been checked? You being on Clomid could be pointless if your hubby hasn't also had his semen tested. Your OB/GYN should be able to order a semen analysis.

Back to PCOS.... a big part of it is insulin resistance and the drug often Rx for it, Metformin, does often help with weight loss for those with PCOS. Your doc would need to do a blood sugar test and insulin test to see if you appear to have insulin resistance.

Babydust!

Thank you for ur comments. I have been tested for pcos. They said the test were negative tho. I have all the signs of it but the test is negative. I think that was the test were I had to fast and drink that nasty orange stuff

Another thing to consider is that for perfectly healthy couples under age 35, you have only 20% chance each month to get pregnant. Using that kind of math, it can take many couples a year to make it. But be sure to not take Clomid for more than 6 months as it can adversely affect your uterine lining.

Have you had hubby's sperm checked?

K if you are not ovulating good idea to discuss with your dr about more aggressive measures to become preggo. Just remember that clomid is the lower class of fertility meds that is currently in the market and for many sadly will not work. Overall injections do have a great success rate however this can be discussed with your dr in more detail or even moving up the amount of clomid you are currently on. Plus good idea for your dr to monitor you in your cycle and do a blood test 7dpo to 8dpo to confirm ovulation this is to test progesterone levels in your blood.

Now a heads up with PCOS it can be diagnosed by your medical provider of course; however, if you have 2 of the following 3 symptoms present:

1) Increased bodily hair growth

2) Increased blood testosterone levels

3) Absent or infrequent periods, and/or the appearance of polycystic appearing ovaries on ultrasound.

Then a follow up with blood work on your hormone levels and u/s and such should be done.

also a good sign of ovulation is sore/tender breast and/or pms prior to af coming:)))
