No AF's EVER!! Questions...

Okay, I've read other posts where some of you have irregular cycles but I've not ran in to anyone who has experienced the same issues as I have, so I'm putting this out there to see if anyone is in the same boat as me, and if anyone can offer some suggestions. First of all, my DH and I will be seeing an RE for the first time in just a few months to discuss options for an IUI (If that's what we're told is necessary for us). I went to a regular ob/gyn who put me on Clomid for six months. I was successful at ovulating on Clomid, but not successful at getting pregnant. I feel like my DH and I have not had the chance at conceiving naturally. What I mean by that is I don't ovulate on my own, nor do I cycle on my own. I literally have not had a period in over six months. As a matter of fact, my last AF was the last month after taking the clomid. I've not had AF since. I feel like if there was something I could take to make my cycles normal every single month, we could conceive naturally without having to pay the high costs for fertility treatments (since we don't have insurance). I've tried everything I've read online. I've tried Vitex, FertilityBlend, Ovulex, Fertility Teas, and an array of vitamins I've been told work but nothing has helped bring on AF. So my question is, does anyone else suffer from extremely long cycles, and have you been diagnosed and treated? If so, what were your treatments and diagnosis? Also, is there anything I can take other then the things I've mentioned having already tried, that will help bring on AF? And last but not least, is there any major dangers in not having AF monthly?

Oh and just so you know, I've been tested for PCOS, and I don't have it. I've been to two different ob/gyn's and neither seemed concerned that I don't have AF and neither offered suggestions on how to "fix" the problem. They just prescribed me provera and sent me on my way. I am overweight but had this same issue before I packed on the pounds. And I am a smoker. I know, I know, stop smoking...heard ya. LOL My AF's became non-existant after I stopped taking BCP's about six years ago.

Thanks in advance for your help!!
