Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
An overdue period with a negative pregnancy test is more likely to be due to polycystic ovaries rather than due to clomid. Clomid is not likely to cause such a delay in the periods. You need to take norethisterone to have a withdrawal bleeding as advised byu your gynecologist.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
