Ovulation occurs 5-15 days after finishing the Clomid. Even there is variability between patients, each person usually does the same every month, e.g. if you ovulate 9 days after finishing the medication in one month, you will probably do the same in the next month (give or take a day).

Just after.

First see when you ovulate the first month on Clomid. Start the OPK 3-4 days prior to the expected day of ovulation the next month.
