How To Determine Exact Time Of Ovulation After A Delivery?
I had a full term baby on June 17, 2011. She passed away 5 days later and doctors aren't sure why. I used to have 40-42 days cycles before i had her. Since June my OB has given me a pill to start my period in August (it started on AUgust 23). I had another period that started naturally on October 11. We are trying to have another baby (starting this last cycle) and today would be day 42 of my cycle. I have had two negative tests (one this morning). I read on WebMd that if you have a 49 day cycle that means you are not ovulating at all. So I am wondering if that is true? Could it be that I tested too early this time since I was basing it on my periods previous to my pregnancy?
Hi, it is true that if your periods delay for a long time every month, there can be probably no ovulation. Do, you need to get evaluated for that. Do a thyroid profile and prolactin levels and a ultrasound for your uterus and ovaries. You can track your ovulation by repeated ultrasound. If it is not happening, then there are medicines like clomiphene which can help you in ovulating. Talk to your doctor regarding this. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any other query I will be happy to help. Regards Dr khushboo
