Not O and still get AF

[avistar]

is it possible to continually get AF and not O? I am just paranoid...since I have had five high readings on my CBFM and read that if you have them up to using 19 testing sticks straight (all highs), either you messed up testing or O was not detected/not happened.

It is possible not to ovulate in a month. And some women dont ovulate and that is why they go on Clomid. (Helps stimulate ovulation)

oh man...I really hope that I O regularly. I just figured that if you aren't Oing normally every cycle, that contributes to having irregular periods...which I do have...but for some women I am sure it is normal biologically for them to O all over the place and have irregular cycles and be healthy and fine.

Hi there,

I've read that in a woman's lifetime, it's quite normal to miss ovulation from time to time, so this is likely to happen to us all. Whatever you do, try not to worry about it and look at it for now as being normal.

I know how you feel about getting so many HIGH's on your monitor, because I am going through the same thing at the moment. I got my sixth HIGH in a row today on CD11 and feel a bit panicked about not getting a PEAK this month. I think the monitor takes a little getting used to and we are both quite new to it. It is making me a bit paranoid and panicky, so I guess you may be feeling a bit like this too. We're in this together remember, so hang in there and try like me to be relaxed about it .... did I say "like me"? I'm such a hypocrite.

I'm got a bloody UTI now haven't I and am waiting imminently for ovulation. Waaaaaaaaaaa!

Try not to panic Avistar

I'm sorry. I really hope you get your PEAK reading soon!

Am having the same horrible thoughts. I am currently on CD20 and my CM is all over the place. No positive OPK sticks and no increase in temp, yet I have had EW a little bit and then today I started getting creamy lotiony that is stretchy so, wtf is that?

But I am worried that I am not ovulating, now, or at least not ovulating every month because my periods were always very irregular.

Ai its evil.

This is a good article about anovulation, it's probable causes, and description.

As the others have said anovulation is common in all women, even women who have regular periods sometimes have cycles where they don't ovulate. How long have you been watching your temps?

yes it is possible to still get af and not ovulate. i have had irregualr cycles since sept 07 when i came of the pill and my doc told me that im probably not ovulating. x

Tish and I both will try not to worry too much, right Tish?? I understand that it is possible to get highs consecutively since the CBFM is just getting to know your cycle. Sending ~PEAK~ vibes! - I also don't think having uti is bad when ttc but when you can't bd, that is so crappy I also don't think antibiotics are bad while ttc either....

Hayley, I stopped bcp Sept 2006 and still have irregular cycles, so it just might be how I am which I guess can make sense since my mom had long cycles too....but it still scares me a lot. And sucks for ttc for sure.

My cm has been creamy and clear all in one day too...maybe it is because we are both almost ready to O?!?!?

My friend was told by the docs that she might not be ovulating as well. She got really worried but she ended up getting pregnant the first month she has sex every other day the entire month. Goodluck girls!
