Dr. Seth Derman answered

Specializes in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility

Yes: While the timing of the Clomid (clomiphene) is not optimal, there is still a chance it will work, so it is good idea to continue it as previously instructed by your doctor. This problem happens from time to time.
