When to start OPK's?

JennM · 06-20-2009, 02:05 PM

I usually O between CD 18-CD22 so my doctor prescribed me 50 mg of Clomid for next cycle. He thinks I will O much sooner the first cycle, so when should I start the OPK's? I'm supposed to go in at 7 DPO to do the Progesterone check, so I need to pinpoint it the best I can.

Hi there: I would start the OPKs on cd 11 just to be safe. But don't be surprised if it takes you a while to O because many women find they O as late as cd 20 on Clomid! What brand are you using?

Best of luck and keep us posted+++++++++

I'm not sure, I just got the prescription and haven't taken it into the pharmacy yet. He gave it to me because I don't always O, and when I do it's really late and random. Hopefully sooner than CD 20 is what I'm hoping though!
