If you have irregular cycles then you wouldn't ovulate at the "normal" time so it wouldn't be weird to ovulate to ovulate on your period. Do you get periods every two weeks? They way that it works is that you ovulate about 12-16 days BEFORE the first day of your period. So if you ovulated on your period that would be that you have one every two weeks. To maybe figure out the bed time to BD would to try purchasing an ovulation prediction kit.

ever since august my periods have either skipped a month or been off by a few days. the last three months it has came atleast once a month but never on time. so ovulating on my period could be normal for me???  where can you get the vulation prediction kit?? how much are they? thank you :)

You can get them for like 20 dollars at walmart. The kit usually has like 7-10 tests so that the week you believe you are ovulating you can check everyday until you get an LH surge. Only problem is if you have irregular periods it may be hard to guess which week is the lucky one. I'm not sure your financial situation but if your able to get one every week until you ovulate then it could work that way but it might be a little expensive. :(

I wanted to add what Alaysha said. Sometimes a surge will only show for maybe 8 hrs. so if you were to test in the morning but O'd at night you may miss it.

I don't think too much sex would pose a problem :) and I agree with Alaysha about your irregular periods and everything. Good luck!
