AnswerHello,
If you had regular menstrual cycles before the medication, that is empirical proof of ovulation. In that case, the medication that you took should have increased the number of eggs available to ovulate. Something is not making sense here. With the medication you should not be anovulatory. I can't tell you why without further information and testing, but I'm wondering if you doc is missing something. Because, things don't make sense.
