Were you monitored during those cycles? I'm assuming you were if you knew you didn't ovulate the last two times. Clomid thinned my lining out, so I wonder if that has happened to you and that might explain why your periods are light.

After not doing well on Clomid, my doctor suggested Femara/letrozole. It functions like Clomid. I'm about to switch to injectables next month b/c my lining is still too thin.

@LucyLu: Are you working with an RE or just a GYN?? Seems a little strange that they didn't do any ultrasounds during your cycle to check on your follicles. Have you been diagnosed with anything specific?

I know some people do not get monitored throughout Clomid cycles, and they were okay and have even had success! My doctor is more conservative, I believe, and does an ultrasound to check for follicles and to measure my lining. I think my RE will also not do more than 4 cycles of Clomid in a row.

I think your doctor will prescribe something and else, and if not, it might be time to look for a different doctor.

@LucyLu: I am actually in Canada which I'm sure is different. It sounds like maybe you dosage on Clomid hasn't been strong enough since you don't seem to be ovulating.....

I agree, I think you may need a stronger dose of Clomid.

agreed probably time for a change, hope the dr is helpful!

I don't know if it could apply at all to you, but I've started to believe each ovary has it's own schedule going (in theory they rotate each month right?). I ovulate on different days every other month (so Sept was like July, expecting October to be like August, etc). I'm sure no doctor would confirm that, it's just a hunch for me.
