Trying To Conceive, Delayed Period, Light Spotting, Pink Discharge, Cramps. Previously Been On Injections. Advise?

I was on the injection for 3 years , came off last year June and got my first period in October (very light)
I then had my period on 4th Nov , 13th Dec , 5th Feb for 7 days each.
I ovulated 3 - 10th Jan and then again 3 - 8th March (I get "ovulating" pains)
We have been actively trying to start a family since January
About 4 days after I ovulated in March I had very light spotting pink /brown discharge only when wiping - this was for about a week but nothing like a period.
Then 24th - 28th March I had small pinching / cramping pains in ovary and pelvic area.
According to ovulation calculators (45 - 47 length cycles)I should have had my period 24th March , but nothing yet.
I am very confused as to the length of my cycles / how to calculate ovualtion / fertility etc / what is for what
Any advice would be great

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
As your cycles are irregular it is difficult to estimate the period of ovulation.
So you once consult gynecologist and check for pregnancy.
If the pregnancy is rule out, you can go for ovulation induction in the next cycle with your doctor's advice.
And after that you can follow the ovulation with follicular study.
Then plan intercourse around the ovulation, which will increase the possibility of pregnancy.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
