clomid and late a/f

Post by kbata »

Just wondering if clomid will make a/f arrive late. Up until this year, I was pretty much on target with a/f at 28 days. This year--I get it between day 28-31--usually on day 28 or day 31 not really any day in between. I took the clomid challenge test during my last cycle--days 5-9--to see if I would do another IVF cycle. Unfortunately, my FSH numbers came out too high to most likely to continue. However, I have still not gotten a/f yet. The first day of my last cycle was July 1. Took clomid July 5-9 and had b/w drawn on July 3 & 10.... I don't really remember the last time I did the clomid challenge test if I was late or not.... I do seem to have signs of it--like cramping, etc. but since it's been 35 days since my period, it seems unusual....

Just wondering if anyone else out there experienced a late period on clomid

well got a/f this afternoon. Never been quite this late, so perhaps the clomid does delay it.

Yes, I think the Clomid does distort your cycles, or at least it did with me. I used to be a regular as clockwork 28 day cycle girl. I took Clomid for 12 months and my cycles were anything from 27 to 33 days long.

kbata- I was 30 days like clockwork and took Clomid for an IUI and my cycles went from 30 days to 45. I guess it's not that unusual.
