    I had to stop temping for now. I think I may need to rely on CM, rhythm, and cervical position as much as I don't like touching my cervix. My schedule is simply too wacky for temping at this point.

    I tried all last month, even after the big "oops!" up until I got my period and my BBT is all over the place. I wake up too much, I sleep at weird times, etc. Hmmm.

    fresas, I know you may not want to do this, but I do want to mention there are always OPK to rely on. You can always DTD with one attempt the first day of a pos OPK for a tiny little cutoff.

    I was thinking about that, too. Thanks for recommending it!

    I have been going back and forth about OPKs, not because I think they are inaccurate, but because I think it may help considering I have PCOS and last month's cycle was not as predictable and the past. I feel I'm in a testosterone upswing too because I can tell I'm gaining weight and my facial hair is really wanting to battle some men's facial even though I'm strictly low carb at the moment. I am avoiding Vitex this cycle, too.

    If I can cut my hours back at work, I may be able to temp again. But you're right, I think for now, it may be best to do the combination of CM, position, and OPKs.

    My temps are always all over the place during my period, then even out, I have an O dip around CD 20 and then a slow rise. What does that say about my hormones? Is a slow rise indicative of low progesterone?

    Not necessarily. That is just one of many normal temp. patterns. The only thing that can indicate low prog is a short luteal phase. How many days is it between when you O and when AF begins?? If you have a 13-14 day LP, your prog is fine.

    What if you don't have any noticeable signs of ovulation, except for an increase in sex drive? I don't get the egg white mucous. What can I do to increase this?
