Question

Anyone?

So me and my husband haven't been able to start trying yet because I had BV but I went to the doctor and got medicine for it and now it's gone so we was going to try with this month cycle but I have yet to start, I'm on cycle day 41. So my question is has anyone missed their period because of stress and still ovulated? This would be my first time missing my period because of stress.

If your LP is not consistent or too short, this would be something to bring up with your Dr, as it may impact your ability to conceive.

Once you ovulate, the ovarian follicle sheds the corpus luteum, which provides the additional progesterone support. When the progesterone "runs out" your bbt will drop and you will menstruate (unless, of course, are preggo). If you do not ovulate, bleeding within that cycle is not technically considered "menstruation", but sometimes referred to as "estrogen related bleeding".

Do you chart? Tracking your bbt and cervical fluid patterns can shed a lot of light on your cycles. Some people also check cervical po
