Re: I have no idea Need Help
What is it that you want to know? The day your period arrives counts as CD1. When was your last period? If you count from the first day of your last period up to the first day of this one, that's the length of your cycle. You can estimate that you ovulated around 14 days before your period arrives, but that's not entirely accurate. You may want to use OPK's or temp to determine when you ovulate and then you can calcuate your LP.

Also, just wanted to add that the length of time that you have AF doesn't play a part in determining your LP or when you will ovulate.

Just wanted to make book recommendation-Taking Charge of Your Fertility. I read it cover to cover pretty much when I was TTC the first time and just skimmed it again a couple months ago as we geared up to TTC again. You learn so much about your cycle. to you.
