Well, now it seems as if it is a full period, which con fuses me even more. WHy on CD 23 would I start a period without even ovulating? I don't get it...
Spotting on CD 23...CONFUSED, Help
September 05, 2008
Ok,Dr.'s and Ladies: I need your help now. I'm simply baffled with my cycle this month!
Background: I have PCOS. I've been taking Metformin for about 2 months now and I take Prometrium 200 mg for part of the cycle. Last cycle was 72 days long, I think I did ovulate on CD 66 of that cycle which made for a 9 day Luteal Phase. The cycle before that one was 56 days with no ovulation at all.
Now on to THIS cycle. Today is CD 24. I don't think I ovulated yet. Last night, I started spotting and again today. (TMI warning)...It's kinda more than spotting, but not a full flow at all, not enough for a tampon or even a pad. Any ideas on what's going on? I don't know what this could mean. I know your can sometimes spot during ovulation and I also know about implantation bleeding. I don't think it's either of those things b/c like I said it's more than spotting, but it's also not a full-blown AF either. I took an HPT just in case and it was negative of course.
I'm including the link for my chart from fertilityfriend.com, please take a look. Any advice would be MOST helpful! THANKS!!!!!!

anything, and i mean anythijng can disrupt ur normal cycle. for some reason... ur cycle changed this time around and had ur period on cd 23, it happens. not sure why u didnt ovulate, sometimes even healthy women only ovulate like 6-10 times a year. not everyone ovulates every month. i would only get discouraged or worried if you stop ovulating all together and ur cycles remain funky lol

This spotting isn't necessarily a sign of ovulation
