I'm not trying to start any drama, I'm just frustrated. You say you are ready to be a mom, yet you don't even know when you ovulate or if you do at all. I know for a fact that you don't ovulate. I'm a health science major in college and have studied health for a while now. You can't ovulate and not have a period. You still have a lot to learn and you are so stuck on trying to get pregnant now, ignoring all of the advice that has been given to you urging you to wait until you are truly ready to be a mom. If you want to continue to ignore everyone and get pregnant anyways, then go for it. But it would be a good idea to take the advice given to you to heart and really think about it because many women have told you the same thing as I have. Your 17 and you have all the time in the world to get pregnant later, but right now you are not ready. I say this not to put you down, but because I hope you have a good life and get to experience and learn more before you bring a child into this world. Good luck.

Well if you supposedly already know the answer, why are you asking?

If you haven't had a period in a year, you are not ovulating. Because if you did ovulate, you would have a period. When an egg is not fertilized it dies and then you shed your uterine lining, having a period. But I guess that doesn't apply to you.

You aren't ovulating since you haven't had a period in a year.

Some times you can still ovulate without a period. It all depends on how long you haven't had a period. If you just miss like a month or two you're still able to ovulate but if you miss more than that, it means no ovulation.
