It's not necessary, but I personally still like to do it. I feel like I am contributing somehow... or maybe it's just a pattern from the last year that I just can't let go of. Who knows.
2002 Lap. surgery Stage 3 Endo
Amenorrhea/Anovulation since 2009
3/2012 HSG left dialated/Hydrosalpinx, right tube blocked
3/2012 SA - Normal! Go little swimmers!
Lap. surgery 6/13/12 stage 4 Endo
Cleared tubes, removed cysts and adhesions.
Repeat HSG, right tube blocked/left hydro.
PCOS, and Endometrial hyperplasia.
Moving forward with purchasing a home, then maybe IVF/ adoption/embryo adoption/ or child free.
I didn't want to do triggers yet. I continue to temp and use OPKs. I haven't had a problem with accurate temperatures. I like to continue to use those methods because my O date has still been erratic on Clomid. CD 22 this month, but 12 the month before. I don't do multiple u/s during each cycle so this allows me to pinpoint things better.

Why wouldn't you want to trigger? And why aren't you having ultrasounds? Guarantee both of those would give you more insight (and would actually give indication for how you are responding with follicles, lining, cysts, etc)
OP - I temp on Clomid, you can check out my charts in my sig. It wasn't necessary, but I liked it.
My Re makes me do temp charts. I also get ultrasounds around day 14 and at the end of cycle. I received my trigger on day 14. I think it just gives her more info.

Re: would you monitor temps on clomid?
Thanks... I am triggering and being monitored so I wasnt sure if temping would be pointless.. Or if it was something women were doing.. thank you.
