Hi Ladies
Wondered if someone fancies having a perv at my chart. I was soooo optimistic at the dip @10dpo, but still no sign of AF and numerous bfn's ... should i still be optimistic... honesty please!
I'm sorry, Snugggs.
They look like classic anovulatory charts with breakthrough bleeding due to estrogen building up the lining. Well, your other chart definitely is, but this one is turning out to be the same. Check out my chart, which shows a similar effect but in greater speed. My body struggled to ovulate at least twice before it effectively ovulated. I can tell because of the dips in temperature corresponding with an improvement in cervical mucus plus an improved 'barely positive' on an OPK. You will have a sustained temperature rise (in most conditions) after ovulating. It is very difficult to achieve a healthy pregnancy without it (not impossible! just difficult).
I can completely understand the difficulties in interpreting your chart as luteal phase or not, and sometimes you really don't know until there is an outcome (menstruation or
). Multiple patches of fertile CM are often a clue that you are having problems ovulating. So is spotting (breakthrough bleeding). So are multiple positive OPKs.
Back to your chart!
It is still possible to ovulate a good egg this month. Sometimes what happens is the LH doesn't surge enough to release the egg, so the body tries several times. If it happens too late, the egg isn't good enough to produce a viable pregnancy. If it doesn't burst at all, you might develop cystic ovaries, which can be seen in ultrasounds.
I would make it a priority to talk to your doctor to get (at least) some basic bloodwork and an ultrasound. There are (non-fertility) health concerns about things like Poly-cystic Ovarian Syndrome, like the insulin resistance for example which can put you at much greater risk for developing diabetes. Meanwhile, there are natural things you can do to promote ovulation, including changing your diet to include more fruit/veg and less refined carbs, taking 80 to 120g of soya isoflavones from day 3-7 of your cycle, and so on.
Please note, taking any supplements, even multivitamins, can come with risk, so if you are concerned, always talk to a doctor or pharmacist.
look at mine 
It is starting to look more like your non-pregnancy cycle, but anything could happen. The CL can still be rescued. Remember what I said about a 'dip' before a further jump in temps? At 9 DPO, there's still time for that! In fact, judging by your other cycles that's about when it happens. I'm still hopeful for you!! It's still promising.
