late or no ovulation..

October 09, 2008

hi ladies and drs..

i don't if i'm late or i didn't ovulate. this month i didn't use a opk. but today i am on cd 42 which is really weird knowing that my longest cycle was 35 days. In july my cycle was 35 days then in august my cycle was 33 days. and *knock on wood* but i never got af yet. i had a little brown bleeding for 2 days on cd 27 and 28 then nothing. A few days after my nipples were really sensitive, not the whole bb, just the nipple area. and now my whole bb is sensitive. Around the time i had bleeding there was no signs that it was coming but it was just 2 days. After the bleeding stopped, i really had sensations that i was going to have a real af, i had mild cramping and was "wet" but when i looked it was only cm.

I was thinking, "can you really have all these progesterone symptoms; sensitive bbs, if never ovulated?"

But then you only can have symptoms if you did ovulate right?

I need opinions from everyone please.

Thanks

p.s. sorry so long.. :)

Nope. No progesterone symptoms if you dont ovulate..

Take a HPT thats the only way..if -ve, then you didnt ovulate atleast 14 days before.

thanks hope.. i took a test last wednesday and got a bfn.. so i must've ovulated then right if i have these symptoms?

what do you guys think my situation is???

thank you

October 10, 2008

yup you could have ovulated later than Wednesday, or about a week before you took your HPT (wednesday) take a test again next week if no period. Good luck!

Thanks hope..again. But could my cycles really be that off..I mean im on cd 42 and it never does go more than 35. So I don't know.

And what would that been, the light bleeding?

Bump for everyones opinions

i would take a test again RAE. since it has been more than a week late for AF, it may not have build HCG in your urin when you tested last. So now would be a good time since you are a week late on your cycle

Thanks a lot angela.. I know I was thinking about testing again but I was really hesitent. Or I was thinking of waiting till the last week of this month for af because I always get af last week of the month. But then im not sure..im driving myself crazy.. What should I do?

I've had a similar situation. Mine was due to not ovulating. Spotting was just breakthrough- not af in my case. Had to get Provera script to bring AF on. I start Clomid my next cycle to **hopefully** fix the no O issue.

Thanks tess.. I hope that's not the case for me. I always get af every month and lately its been coming when it suppose to. Crossing my fingers that this is my month. Today im on cd 45.

October 13, 2008

Have you tested yet Rae??? Good luck

October 13, 2008

no not yet angela.. i'm not too sure on what i want to do yet.. i need someone to persuade me what to do.. haha

October 14, 2008

cd 47 today.. i had cramping last night but still don't know whats going on.

October 14, 2008

maybe your not ovulating?

October 14, 2008

is it possible though to have symptoms and not be ovulating. because i just found out that progesterone always come from ovulation. these past months have been good. i would have af when i'm suppose to and always have sore bbs a week before af comes.

October 15, 2008

I'm not sure. But it sounds like you didn't o if you got bfn. I'm not a doc but I don't think I o'ed after my loss. I still don't see Af it's been a while for me. I hope you get the answers you need. Talk to your doc maybe he/she could shed some light for you.

October 16, 2008

Cd 48 today.. What do you guys think?

October 16, 2008

Based-upon your cycle lengths, it doesn't sound like you are ovulating. Anything over 33 days is most-likely an anovulatory cycle. Are you working with an RE? If do, have him test your progesterone on day 20-23 and he/she will be able to tell you if you ovulated.

chk with gyn

October 16, 2008

Hey Rae, Amy is right,,,if -ve preggo tests, that means no ovulation last cycle. I would talk to ur Dr abt this..Good luck to u
