Charting Help Please?

Hi,
I started charting in September after coming off contraception pill in March and having issues with irregular periods after that, I had been on the pill for 5 years and prior to that i could set my watch to my cycle.

Since March I have had 5 cycles, all varying in their lengths. Last one was 67 days where according to my chart I ovulated on day 57. Currently I am on day CD30 with no ovulation signs so far, I have also started OPK's this cycle.

I have not yet seen my GP about my issues, should I? I have started taking vitex in a hope this helps. The most frustrating part is that with such irregularity I have no idea when i am actually ovaulating (unfortunatley my body so far has not given me good signs)

Can anyone suggest anything else that may help or has been through a similar thing with a positive result?

I have posted my last and current chart for any opinions?

Thanks in advance

Hi :)

I am sure a dr would suggest waiting a while to see if your cycles get back to normal on their own. Maybe try some natural meds to aid your cycle... Vitex is one... It can take quite a while for your cycle to regulate after hormone replacements.

As for your charting. I would suggest keep track of everything, your CM, CP and any other changes just to get a feel of what your body is doing. The more notice you take now the better off you will be in future cycles. Also try vag temping to try and get steadier temps.

You have fertile CM now, so O may not be too far off.

All the best :)

Hi Tanya,

cross fingers that I have or just about to O, as frustrating as it is having irregular periods the charting ( even though this is only the 2nd cycle I have ) is really helping, i have gone back to my last one to see signs etc that I had just before i o'd and it seems I had temp dip and also things like tender breasts etc. So this cycle I have looked for all of these signs, I think i may have ovulated yesterday, if this is the case then we have timed BD and good chance this month! Dont want to get my hopes up too much though!

Thanks for your advice.
