Have a question..

I got my period on March 2. I usually have a 26-27 day cycle. I tempt and was suppose to ovulate on CD13...it is now CD 20 and I still haven't had a tempt spike. What might be going on?

Re: Have a question..

is temping your only method to detect ovulation? it's very possible you are ovulating later than usual this month.

Re: Have a question..

I had all the symptoms of ovulation on CD 13 I had EWCM, abdominal pain, but no temp rise.

Re: Have a question..

I would keep BD'ing as if you haven't O'ed yet, but it could be possible that you did O when you had all the other symptoms, and for some reason your temps were off (there was a thread on here about the various reasons your temps might not be accurate). If you aren't using any other method of detecting ovulation like an OPK, all you can really do is wait and see what happens.

I don't temp, so I haven't done much research on it. I wish I could be more helpful.

Good luck!

Re: Have a question..

i'm guessing the EWCM is now gone? is this your first month temping? i am curious if you usually see a spike during ovulation. most people do because of the rise in progesterone at ovulation. however, it is possible that you might not see the rise but still have ovulated. i would go based on presence of EWCM to determine ovulation then.

Re: Have a question..

There is no more EWCM and I have been tempting for 3 months and I always have a spike.

Re: Have a question..

this is what i would do. if you see EWCM again, continue BDing and see if you eventually get a spike (could be delayed ovulation). if not, it's possible you did not ovulate this month. it has happened to me once or twice. or, maybe something else is going on with your body (like an illness or something) that is affecting your temps and you did ovulate but did not see a spike. considering you had 2 other cycles with a spike, i would not worry.

Re: Have a question..

You should keep until you either get AF (which I hope you dont) or get a BFP. Every other day should do it. It is also possible that this may be an annovulatory cycle.
