Late ovulation
Anyone have luck conceiving with late ovulation? I’m not sure why, but some months I start spotting around day 14, the spotting lasts a few days, and I don’t ovulate until a few days after the spotting stops. I’m currently on day 19 with negative OPKs. My doctor says people typically don’t conceive past day 21, due to something about the quality of the egg at that point in the cycle. My CM tells me it’s going to be soon, but every time I take a test that darn smiley face fails to appear. Looking for success stories from people who ovulate late :)

I have never heard that about later ovulation. O at CD20 with a 14 day LP would be a 34 day cycle which still falls within normal. The only thing I have read is that the longer it takes to ovulate (so your body tries to O on CD14, doesn't happen, so tries again at CD18, doesn't work so tries again days later) the egg quality deteriorates as it has been sitting there already matured for so long. I currently O around CD21/22. So I'm off to do some googling now!
