my cycle is 29d, no more, no less. even down to the time of day my period arrives. last month it was 2 days late and this month i am on CD10 but have been getting ov pains today. i had a HSG on monday do you think i have ov'd or its to do with the HSG? didnt have any pains yesterday at all

hi

if anything is going to vary month to month, it is the pre-ov phase, rather than lp, i think. dont forget your hsg may have caused some trauma to it all-it may just be pain related to that. do you have/can you buy an opk?

i tend not to use them tbh. i thought it might have been my body sorting itself out a bit. after my 2nd mc my period was 4d late then the next one was 2d early, so was the one after that

Hi lissie. How are you?

Even if you have a regular cycle, ovulation can vary by a few days within that, so yes, it is possible.

fine thanks, you?

im pretty sure it was ov pain. luckily we did bd last night, but will assume that i have 4d left to ov

I'm doing well, thanks

unless I'm very wrong, I'm pretty sure the 14 days between ov and period thing (however long the cycle) is a rule of thumb that can vary - which is quite plausible if you think about how complex all those balances of hormones and processes are - little things coule easily 'upset' them.

A person can ovulate earlier, later or not at all in ANY given cycle.

If the HSG was done on Monday then it probably isn't related to that.

could the HSG have prompted early ov then?

Would not have thought so. Ovulation is driven by hormones.
