Clomid confusion

Hello. I have PCOS. I started with follistm shots but I produced too many eggs so they had to cancel the cycle and now I am on 50 mg of clomid. They followed me with ultrasounds and said that the meds weren't working because my follicles weren't growing. We were getting ready to start the 100 mg. dose but they did bloodwork and my progesterone was high so I did ovulate but I didn't have any signs that I ovulated. Do you still think that I could have ovulated?  I ovulated around cycle day 25 and now it is cycle day 31. Do you think there is hope that I might be pregnant? Is it bad that I ovulated this late in the cycle and that my cycle is still going. Can I have your honest opinion. Please help.
Thanks,
Missy

Missy i always say i will take a break but i never do.I never stay for more than 2 months.Right now i'm on bedrest as i had my embryo transfer this monday.This is my 3 ivf.I had 2 failed.After my m/c we decided to do ivf as we could have chosen the embryos and had a higher chance of pregnancy.Probrably the reason i m/c was the embryo quality as seeing as i have pcos is much more difficult cause the eggs are not that good cause the whole imbalance thing. That combo i told you about worked for me and is much more risky than only injections.And i had no IUI only BD the days of ovulation.It is not easy having PCOS. And when trying for a family it makes it a really fight but nothing impossible to win.

I'm so sorry about your 3 mc. That is so sad. They are actually putting me on 100 mg. of clomid and the shots this next cycle. They had me on the shots before I went on clomid but I produced too many eggs and they had to cancel the cycle. This is so frustrating. At first they told me that I didn't ovulate on the 50 mg. and then they did bloodwork and my progesterone was high so I did around cycle day 28 which is way late. I am waiting right now. I hate this. Are you taking a break from treatment now?

I have pcos too and clomit never worked for me.I did for 5-6 cycles and ovulated only once.For the injections my Re was sceptical cause i would have produced many follicles and also for ohss.So he put me on a combo of them 2. 5 days of 200mg clomit and 3-4 days of injections for that boost that clomit doesn't give.I had 4 follicles and hcg at the last day. I got pregnant 3 times with this method but m/c all 3. You could talk to your doctor for this method it worked for me even though the result was not good. Good luck
