Hi
Clomid is an ovulation induction drug. Most women will ovulate 7 to 10 days after they take their last Clomid pill.
Clomid can cause a false positive in Ovulation Predictor Kits if taken too soon after finishing the prescription. According to most of the manufacturers you should wait at least 3 days before using the kit.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
