Question

Can you ovulate on different CD's each month??

Im asking this on behalf of my friend.

Shes had alot of trouble conceiving #2 and after blood tests was told she had ovulated on cd24, but this month she got a positive opk on cd18! This has confused her greatly, so i said id ask on here and see if any1 can shed some light for her. Any advice would be greatly helpful.

It is common and normal to ovulate on different CDs each month. The follicular phase (before ovulation) can be longer or shorter. The luteal phase (after ovulation) tends to stay about the same length. Some months I ovulate on CD 9, other months as late as CD 13. There are lots of variations, so tell your friend to not be worried about it, it is absolutely normal. All the best.

Thanks heaps for that, i know she on has a very short luteal phase of 6days...But if she has already got a positive opk, will that now make her luteal phase off??

The luteal phase will stay about the same length, ~ 6 days in her case. Now with a lp that short it is next to impossible to become pregnant. She should be taking progesterone supplements to lengthen it to at least 12 days. Implantation occurs most often between 7-11 days after ovulation. With an lp of only 6 days there is barely a chance for implantation. Hope this helps.
