May 8, 2020 at 10:31 amI say "new" because I was just diagnosed with PCOS last month. But it's probably been part of why TTC the last year has not gone well. My last cycle was 59 days (probably first of my life... I used to be very regular, about 31-32 days). I've picked up BBT charting again. Not perfect. But would someone kindly check my chart and tell me if they think I've ovulated? I'm struggling to figure that out. I'm still learning what to look for in a PCOS chart. And for all of us researching and trying, these things can be so discouraging until we remember "...with God all things are possible" Matt. 19:26).

May 8, 2020 at 1:43 pmHi. Happy to take a look. With PCOS, you might see more fluctuations in your temps. I have seen charts of women who were diagnosed with PCOS and I wouldn't have been able to tell just based on their BBT charts.

It will be best to have at least 3 cycles charted before really being able to tell if you have any kind of pattern.

Based on what you currently have charted. I woudl say CD 9 is possible. but not likely with how long your cycles have been.

CD 20 is another possibility. However, you will need the next 3 days temps to be above CD 21 to determine that.

Hope this helps!

May 11, 2020 at 10:49 amWell, BBT dropped today and new cycle started. So does CD 9 seem likely then? Is a 15 luteal phase long? This may be my shortest cycle ever overall.

May 11, 2020 at 12:57 pmA 15 day luteal phase is a great length. You want it to be between 12-15 days. CD 9 is a possible ovulation day. You might consider tracking cervical mucus as well, to help you identify when you are moving closer to ovulation.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
