Question for all your experts.


If your doctor doesnt think your Ovulating because your cycles are more than 28 days late(mine are usually 3-4 days late).

Have you had any blood tests?


Your Dr should be able to tell if you are ovulating from your blood tests.


Were you on bc before TTC? It can take a few months to regulate your cycle


I took Agnus Castus (Vitex / Chaseberry) 1000mg x 2 tablets after I came of the Depo shot.


My first cycle was 98 days, then 3 cycles of 20 / 21 days where I did not ovulate.


My next 4 cycles show a thermal shift which indicates ovulation, but I start spotting at 8 or 9 days after ovulation, so my progesterone may be low, I am having a blood test to check my progesterone at 7 days after ovulation this cycle. And then will be refered to a gyno...


Good luck

I didn't realize you could check if your ovulating by a blood test.

I went to the doc last Tuesday and got blood work and I"m STILL waiting to hear back from the clinic to see what they got on my blood test.


Thanks!


I am just intersted to see how long it took for everyone.
