TTC with irregular menstrual cycle??????

by luv4ver, Oct 29, 2008 08:07PM
So, I've been tracking my menstrual cycle since April just on my calendar on my phone. Yesterday I put it all into my ovulation tracker and realized just how irregular my cycle is. Last month wasnt even considered a cycle cause i only had light, light spotting for a week and my cycle has never been the same amount of days. Does anyone no how to track ovulation with irregularity? Or what I could do to regulate it?
Thanks!!

i get ovulation pains each month just b4 ovulation so that makes it easier for me but you can also get ovulation kits they are good too also use the CM method as well but if you have sex every second day you should be pretty well covered as sperm can live up to 4-5 days
wish i could say more there are alot of good books on this subject tho and also info on here about how to work out when your ovulating, ovulation generally occurs 14 days b4 the next period is due doesnt have to be in middle of your cycle but almost always happens 14 days b4 af is due. good luck keep in touch xx

I also had an irregular cycle as i have PCOS with means i only probably ovulated about twice a year! How frustrating while trying to conceive but we just made love every 2nd day and after 8 months of docs telling me I would not conceive on my own I fell pregnant! I was 6 weeks pregnant when i found out as my implantation spotting was really like a period! It was light but 5 days long and I thought it was my period but the next month was late so did blood test and was already 6 weeks pregnant! How exciting I wish you lots of baby dust luck!
I am now 24 weeks pregnant with a little girl due around the 10th feb!
Baby dust! ;)

thanx guys!! yes, im planning on getting an ovulation kit. I think thats my best bet right now.
I cant imagine how frustrating that must have been knowing you only ovulated twice a year. But you cant always listen to the docs. My bf's mom wasnt supposed to be able to have kids at all and she had two. It's encouraging to hear you are now pregnant while having PCOS. Hope you have a good pregnancy!
Thanks
