MY LAST AF WAS OCT 14TH, ON CD5-9 I STARTED MY SECOND MONTH OF CLOMID 100MG, ON CD 14 I HAD AN U/S THAT SHOWED THAT MY FOLLICLES HADNT MATURED TO THE RIGHT SIZE MY DR WAS LOOKING FOR, MY BIGGEST ONE WAS 11MM, HE TOLD ME TO CONTINUE TO BD THAT IT DIDNT MEAN I WOULD OVULATE STILL WITHIN 4-6 DAYS. SO I MONITERED MYSELF WITH THE CLEARBLUE EASY MONITER AND NEVER SAW THAT I OVULATED ALL THE WAY UPTO CD26, AFTER THAT I STOPPED MONITERING, WE CONTINUED TO BD FOR A FEW MORE DAYS. I'M NOW ON CD 30 AND DONT FEEL I STILL OVULATED, WHAT I'M CONFUSED ABOUT IS IF HE SAW FOLLICLES DID THAT MEAN I WOULD STILL OVULATE BUT MIGHT NOT CONCEIVE B/C THEY WERE THE WRONG SIZE OR THAT THE FOLLICELS WERE TOO SMALL TO TURN INTO EGGS? AS I SAID TODAY IS CD 30 AND YESTERDAY AND TODAY I NOTICED MY FIRST VERY MINIMAL EGG WHITE WHEN I WIPED, DOES THIS MEAN I AM OVULATING BUT WAY LATE? ALSO MY CYCLES IN THE PAST HAVE BEEN 40-41 OR NOT HAVING A CYCLE AT ALL AND HAVING TO BE INDUCED BY PROVERA. DOES IT SOUND LIKE MY CHANCES ARE VERY LOW. ALSO I WAS SENT TO AN RE WHO SAID TO CONT TO BD TOO, BUT THAT I HAD TO HAVE AN HSG, BW AND SEMEN ANALYSIS FOR HUBBY. THIS IS ALL TOO CONFUSING.HELP

I just had a 43 day cycle with no ovulation. I was on fertility meds for ivf up until cd13 when we canceled due to over suppression but i had 4 follies- one lead follie. its not enough for ivf and i didnt want to do another iui b/c i was still going to have to use meds and it was up to $620/night in shots so we just cancelled it all. Well i never ovulated (i was doing bbt so i knew) and once i hit 5 days past my normal cycle they did a beta, p4 and e2 check and with the results they saw i did not ovulate, was not pg and my e 2 was too high so they gave me provera (1st time in my life as i always O on my own and always get af about 26 day cycle) and i finally got af full flow today. Go in and have them do the same tests i had done, if they show you did not ovulate then get provera and get going with af. My follies on cd13 were 17mm, 13mm, 10mm and 9mm and i didnt ovulate so its very possible you will not ovulate and even if you did in cd 40 range your eggs will be too poor a quality to get pg on this cycle. Keep in mine you should always be having u/s when you are on clomid b/c its main side effect is thinning of the lining and if its too thin you cannot implant. An hsg is very normal at the begining of fertility investigations. It is to see if your tubes are blocked or not. It should have been done before clomid b/c if they are both blocked you cant get pregnant and the clomid just wrecks havoc on your body for no reason. Bloodwork, and sperm analysis are all part of a normal work up. They will check his count, his motility his morphology etc. If your tubes are open and he does clomid again you might have to go on injections to help grow your follies and then do an iui. You can google clomid and get info on it. as well as all the other things mentioned. The web has tons of info on infertility so just google all the words you dont know and you'll soon know more than you ever wanted. Good luck.

WELL THE REASON I DIDNT HAVE AN HSG TEST BEFORE STARTING CLOMID IS B/C MY OB WANTED TO TAKE THE "RELAXED APROACH" FIRST. AFTER MY 1ST ROUND OF CLOMID WE DIDNT DO AN U/S SO ON MY SECOND I ASKED FOR ONE, AND THATS WHEN IT SHOWED THE RESULTS THAT MY FOLLIES WERE TOO SMALL, HE TOLD ME HE WOULD HAVE TO SEND ME TO AN RE BC I NEEDED INJECTIONS TOO. SO THATS WHERE I'M STUCK AT WAITING FOR AF TO SHOW SO WE CAN START THE BW THEN THE HSG AND HUBBIES SEMEN ANALYSIS. HES ALREADY A HAD AN ANALYSIS BEFORE AND IT CAME UP EPRFECT BUT RE WANTED ONE DONE AT HER OFFICE. CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT AN IUI IS IN DETAIL. I DONT WANT TO GO BACK ON CLOMID AGAIN IF IT DIDNT WORK I FEEL IT WOULD BE A WASTE MIGHT LIKE TO TRY FEMERA HAVE YOU HEARD OF IT?
