    Oo ok, the Dr said I would still have ovulated on the mirena but because of the hormones it releases in the womb the lining doesn't thicken so often people get no AF because of that, I don't know if that's just the reaction with some people or what, she didn't say anything about spotting, so I assumed i would ovulate before getting any bleeding but no, although there hasn't been that much.

    Is there anything I can do to encourage O to return? And should I contact my dr about that if I don't after 6 weeks or so?

    I would wait 90 days with no sign of O or AF before seeing a dr. Sooner only if you're still spotting.

    I've never heard of it being possible to O on the mirena without a lining/AF. That seems so unlikely to me, but I will go read up on it!

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    supposedly it's possible, the hormones keep the lining from forming/sloughing for some peopl and then the presence of the IUD itself makes your uterus so irritable that nothing can implant.

    Honestly, I'm not totally convinced they know HOW it works.
