hi ladies, iv never charted before and have PCOS so im not sure if it would be any good for me??
Have NO IDEA how to start or how to go about it.... AF came last night so when should I start
Any basic advice would be muchly appreciated. And what product do u guys recommend for ovulation checking ie maybe baby (which i found useless in the past)
Charting is a great way to keep track of your cycles. I'd suggest signing up with Fertility Friend (today - you need to start as soon as you get AF!) and use their charts. You can pay to upgrade to a VIP service if you like which gives you access to a lot more information and features.
If you really want to get into it, get yourself a basal thermometer too so you can also take your temp each day. The more information you can enter about your cycles, the easier it is to predict ovulation and time DTD in order to catch those eggs :) Fertility Friend and Belly Belly (BB) have a lot of information about charting, fertile signs, ovulation predictor kits (OPKs), etc.
I'm not sure how PCOS will affect your charts but there are plenty of girls on BB with PCOS who chart. Hopefully some of them can give some advice.
Good luck!
