Delayed Period - 1st IVF schedule in January

Hi all - I'm not sure what's going on? Wondering if anyone has experienced this.

I've gone through 4 failed medicated IUI cycles. This was my first "break" cycle since July - no meds. My DH and I decided not to put pressure on anything and had sex once in this cycle on Day 8. I've been on 25-27 day cycles for at least 2 years or so, the IUI medicated cycles were extended to about 30-31 days. I've been a chronic spotter ever since I came off BC 4 years ago. I'd spot at least for 4-5 days before my period (had endo, removed has since improved). Even on the medicated IUIs with progesterone, as I was nearing day 30/31, I'd be spotting on progesterone for at least a few days.

This cycle, I spotted randomly on Day 17 & 18 - probably after ovulation?? I had a saline SIS (sonohysterogram or "mock IVF" transfer with saline) done around the time we had sex.

I'm on Day 31 now, no period. NO spotting at all. That is SO unusual.

Is it possible this is delaying my period? Could sperm really have survived from Day 8 until ovulation sometime likely around Day 14-17? Maybe I ovulated early? Is it coming off of fertility drugs?

No idea and too scared to test or anything yet. Maybe it's still on its way, but this is so weird. Any ideas?
