PCOS and Clomid - loosing hope

Hello all,

 Not sure if this is where i should ask this.  I have now had 2 failed Clomid cycles - in which I didn't ovulate.  I am wondering if anyone had a CD21 progesterone that was negative (0.9), and still gotten a BFP?  Could I have not ovulated yet?

 

THanks

    I just wanted to say good luck, I know where you are. I didn't have any luck with clomid but a lot of ladies have!

    good luck! and maybe ask for metformin the next round if this one fails.

    i think if you have not ovulated yet, then you probably won't this cycle- it may be that you need a higher dose of clomid, or that clomid just isn't the answer for you. i had no luck with clomid, either.  

    also, you should be monitored during your cycle to see whether a follicle/follicles are developing, which will give you a better chance of knowing if and when you have ovulated.

    good luck!

    Did they increase your dose from the 1st cycle?  When Clomid first got me to o I would still o late...had to keep increasing it to get me to o and on 'schedule'

    good luck!

    I didn't o on clomid or femara, but I did on femara and follistim (injectable) and got pregnant with my girls. :)

    I conceived my oldest daughter with 150mg of Clomid + trigger + TI.  However, I did not respond when trying to conceive my younger daughter, so we moved on to injectibles.  Good luck to you!

    I have PCOS, too, and my RE didn't think I'd respond to Clomid. We gave it one try (at 150mg) and I didn't O, so we moved right to injectibles. This is my second injects baby. GL!

    Not sure what your diagnosis is, but lots of folks don't respond to clomid...especially women with PCOS.

    Maybe ask your Dr. about femara??  I had lots of luck with it. 

    good luck!
