I?m hoping you lovely ladies can give me some advice.

I suffered a late loss in July this year and my cycles prior to the loss were quite regular (32-33 days) and I had all the typical symptoms of ovulation so could pinpoint my ?ripe? time down to the minute. It took the second month of trying to fall pregnant.

After my loss, my cycles have been totally off the planet. DH and I started TTC again in September and my past 3 cycles have been anywhere between 40-45 days. Needless to say, I got excited each time AF was late, only to crash when the witch reared her ugly head each time.

Earlier this month, I went to see a FS as I was very concerned damaged could have been done after requiring two D&C?s in July due to retained placenta products ? with the second D&C causing an enormous amount of bleeding to the point of nearly hemorrhaging. The FS assures me all looks good with my uterus and lining now but he decided to put me on 50mg of Clomid days 2-6 to help regulate my cycle and speed things along a little due to my age (almost 38). He stated I would ovulate on day 14 on Clomid and we should DTD regularly from CD7 until day CD15. DTD like crazy from CD 8 to CD15 but to be on the safe side, continued every second day until CD 19.

I had no noticeable CM on Clomid (which I know is a side effect) so don?t know when I ovulated this month. He advised not to use OPKs on Clomid as you can get false positives. Did use Preseed to help with the dryness after reading a lot of good stuff about it on the internet.

Today I went for my 21 day progesterone test and I asked the nurse about lack of CM and the detrimental effect it has on sperm surviving, and she said I probably haven?t seen EWCM yet as I should be seeing it now and approaching LH surge any day ? today is CD22!! She said a lot of women ovulate late on Clomid and if I don?t ovulate this cycle on 50mg then we should up the dose to 100mg and I will then get more EWCM ? completely contradictory to what I have read about the side effects. So now I?m really confused. My FS put me on Clomid to regulate/shorten my cycle and stated that I will have a 28 day cycle on Clomid and if AF was late, then that would mean I?d be pregnant for sure ? he stated ?there is no such thing as a late period on Clomid, if you?re late you?re pregnant? - but after today?s chat with the nurse, I?m left confused and irritated at the conflicting information.

Can anyone help me out?
