A member asked:

Can clomid (clomiphene) delay my period?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes: There are several possible reasons for a period to be delayed taking clomid (clomiphene). Possibilities include: pregnancy. The person didn't ovulate on that dose clomid (clomiphene). Usually Clomid (clomiphene) is taken days 3-7 of the cycle so if Clomid (clomiphene) is taken later the period will be later.
