View Full Version : Temp drop after ovulation.

Please check out my chart and previous charts. No idea what is going on. My post Ovulation temps have been quite a bit lower than when I was charting back in 2009. I did have FF mark O as day 20. Following temps have meant FF has completely removed my coverline as I had two temp dips after my O. I had a OPK+ by + I mean it was almost as dark as the control line. No signs (CM wise) of ovulation since day 20. Any thoughts?
Feeling just a touch anxious. Btw, no chance of being pregnant either.

It may just be an off cycle. Sometimes you won't release an egg. Hopefully your next cycle will be more regular.

Thanks. I hope it is just an off cycle. I actually ovulated exactly 2 weeks late in the cycle I fell pregnant with my last DD. However, I'm more anxious this time because I am swaying.

I had a really odd chart when I got pregnant with ds1...it was high for a day or two then sharp decline! So odd. But I think it's hard to rely on temps since there are other factors that might influence it (poor sleep, alcohol, etc).

If test line isn't as dark as control then it's technically not a +OPK. I have long cycles and often get several almost +opks several times before I actually o and these are accompanied by cm signs too. Like my body gears up but then doesn't O. Coming off your mirena maybe your body is just having a wonky cycle. Temps can be tricky if you're sick, drink at all, don't sleep well, are up with kids, etc. might just need to wait and see what happens. Sorry I'm not more help!

Thanks ladies :) I did another OPK not too long ago. I think it's darker than this morning. I will do another one at 6pm, then one tomorrow. Hopefully I will get a super dark one. I know I had troubles getting super dark OPK's when using back in 2009. If I can get a super dark OPK I will take a pic for future reference.
Feel free to check out my chart, let me know your thoughts.

I know we talked about this already but a temp drop after "ovulation" indicates that you probably did not ovulate. Continue testing and await the real thing!

I have used my OPK's twice today, both times they were much lighter than yesterdays. I don't know if I ovulated. Either way, it looks like my LH levels are going down.

I agree that you probably haven't Oed. As for your LH levels, they may increase again leading to true O. You already know that sometimes you can O late, so keep testing and temping and BDing.You will probably still O...eventually. I know the wait is frustrating! I just Oed on CD22, ugh.

Atomic, could the supps delay ovulation? Maidentomother, I'm officially on CD32 :(

Evening primrose oil can delay ovulation so you should stop taking that just before ovulation.
Green tea has occasionally seemed to delay O for some people so if you're drinking a bunch of that you may want to dial it back.
High dose B vitamins can also delay O but if you are only taking a prenatal that shoudl not be happening.

I'm not taking the EPO, I'm not drinking green tea either. I am taking 1000IU vitamin B every second day and whatever vitamin B is in Elevit. I take the Elevit every day.

It's the B vitamins, start gradually spacing doses further and further apart and even to the point of dropping them if you have to.

I'm fine to drop the vitamin B if you're fine with it atomic. I might look for a smaller dose. There is already some vitamin B in the Elevit.

don't just drop them, wean off gradually.
