TTC after 35

Clomid question

I took Clomid for 5 days a few weeks back in hopes of having my first IUI. That didn't happen since it was determined there was no sperm in my husband's semen when he did his thing in the office the day the IUI was planned. Now I know I'm not   pregnant but I am 4 days late and usually my cycles are 27 or 28 days long. I don't even feel like I'm getting ready to start my period. My question to the ladies who have taken Clomid is this common?

I really didn't want to waste a pregnancy test when I know it's going to be negative. I might have to in the next couple of days just to be sure. I really don't have any pregnancy symptoms.

Re: Clomid question

  • Not in my experience. I have taken it for 3 months. did you take a pregnacy test just to be sure.

  • In my experience, Clomid makes my cycle shorter because I ovulated stronger and faster. Did you ovulate late, could that be why you are late?

    Did you and the hubs get frisky the evening before the IUI? Could that be why he had 0 sperm? ; )

    How long is your average LP? Do you chart?

    Maybe you should take the test...

  • My experience with Clomid was similar.  I took it for 3 cycles and the last cycle had to be given meds to bring on AF.  Not sure why it had that effect on me but it made my cycles kinda crazy.  HTH Best of luck!
