Actually, my first 2 cycles seemed very "normal" because they were exactly 28 days long, etc., but the temps were off and I chalked it up to working very late every night (I usually get home around 2 a.m.)
After 5 or 6 cycles with no luck, had the dr check me out and she said I wasn't OVing. She did additional testing and nothing else was wrong, so I'm assuming my body was still messed up from the BC pills. Then in July (cycle 7) I was supposed to start Clomid and I missed my AF completely! Since I wasn't PG (I thought I was the whole time, and it was awful when I found out my body was playing another mean trick on me!) my dr had to jump-start it with Provera. She said if I wasn't OVing, sometimes you can miss a period, and sometimes you will still get a period.
Long story! Sorry. So bottom line, once I started taking the Clomid last cycle, my temps seem to be normal. Dr confirmed I did OV last month, so it is working. I am on round 2 now! I think my cycles were messed up and I wasn't OVing because of the BC pills. I think it would have straightened out on its own without the meds, but I didn't have the patience to wait it out, and I'm not sure how long it would have taken.
I also think I was OVing some months and not others; people often have anovulatory cycles, and it is possible I was having an anovulatory cycle when I had the bloodwork done and I'm using the Clomid needlessly (but I'd rather be on it then not know).
Hope that helps! And I hope your cycles straighten out soon. I have heard it can take 6 months, but some women's cycles sync up really fast; it varies. Lots of luck and
