Re: Menses but no ovulation?

Good morning kallie,

I wanted to let you know that I am one of those women that do not ovulate. My "period" comes every month, between the 17th and 25th day. not very accurate, but hey its there. I am not real happy to have it because it is a pain in the butt, and who wants a period with no ovulation anyway. My RE called it "breakthru" bleeding, but I always associated that with bleeding in the middle of a cycle. Maybe it is the same thing in some ways, I do not know.

I know I do not ovulate because my doctor ran a series of blood serum tests for a couple of months on days 8,11,14,17 and 20 of my cycle with nothing. I am supposed to start clomid in May.

Hope this helps.

TTFN
