Clomid, PCO, and ovarian cancer

I have been on 50 mg Clomid for 5 cycles (and 4 cycles a few years ago). No pregnancy yet, and an HSG on Wednesday showed clear tubes, although my lack of ovulation is due to suspected PCO. My paternal grandmother died of ovarian cancer in 1993. I am worried about continued use of Clomid, and the risk of ovarian cancer. Should I be worried? How long can I safely go on using the clomid? My husband will be having a semen analysis (though a previous one showed a count of 150 mil, with no problems), so as long as that turns out ok, I assume my doctor will continue prescribing clomid for me. Any insights, advice, suggestions?

Thanks!
