bbt and pcos

Hi,

some questions about how pcos can effect the bbt.

I ovulated presumally on the 24th Feb which co-incides with my fertile CM, ovarian twinges and OPK's with an LH surge on the 23rd. My temp only rose two tenths of a degree though on the 24th although today it has risen another tenth of a degree. 1) Is it common with PCOS sufferers to only have minimal temp rise despite ovulation? 2) Last months charting, i noticed a gradual rise in temp after ovulation and even when my period started, my temp remained high and gradually the temp went down after 9 days from the start of my cycle rather than a sudden fall on day of menses. Again what could attribute to such a slow fall in temp at start of cycle as well as a gradual rise in temp post ovulation? I have heard that progesterone residue can remain in the system for some time hence why the temp sometimes remain high despite menses. Could it also equate to a possible miscarriage at that time and why the temp still remained high? I never seem to get a sudden large rise of temp post ovulation as well as a sudden drop at begining of menses, why is this? 3) could gradual and minimal rise and fall also be due to low progesterone?

Any answers greatly appreciated.

Regards
