Are you seeing an RE or an ob/gyn? Usually an RE monitors clomid cycles closely, while an ob/gyn
does not.

Ask if the doctor will measure your progesterone 7 days after ovulation. (Make sure its 7 days past ovulation, NOT necessarily day 21, since its reasonanly likely you will ovulate later than cd14 on Clomid.) The progesterone test shows whether the clomid was successful in inducing ovulation. Usually, the doctors are happy with a progesterone value of at least 15 for a clomid cycle -- if its lower than that they like to increase the Clomid dose.

If you find the Clomid drys up the cervical mucus (which is quite common) you might want to ask about a postcoital test.

Ummm...that's all I can think of right now. Hope that helps.
