Thanks Katie. Before I go straight into IUI or IVF route, I would like to rule out all other possibilities and it is likely that the depo is still in my system.
Should I consider Clomid after depo?

I am a 36 year old women who took her last (and only) depo shot on Dec 11, 2007. I experienced very long periods and I was prescibed Primolut which brought my cycls back to my normal 28-day cycle in April. I took a blood test on June 11 that indicated I am not ovulating.
My doctor has suggested I start on a 5 day dose of Clomid. I am inclined to wait a few more months but wanted to get another opinion. What are some possible side effects of the drug?

Chrissy,
I took the depo shot right before my wedding so you can imagine my pleasure at having my period for 6 weeks out of the first 2 months of marriage :-(((. I now regret not doing some research before taking the shot but the week before the wedding was hectic and I trusted my doctor when he said the only side effect may be some weight gain - absolutely no mention of long periods or the delay of my fertility.
Anyway, lesson learned :-))
