Wonky cycles!

[Yuzu]

I have no idea what's going on with my body!

The past few months my cycles have been really long. I don't know if it's a supplement or weight loss or what causing it. Anyway, I O'd on August 2, got a BFN and AF showed up 12 days later. Everything normal. I decide to take a break from swaying for the Aug/Sept cycle.

The past few days I kept feeling crampy and weird. I've been tracking fertility like usual and today I show peak Ovulation!! What? That means that in the month of August I'm O'ing twice. And it also means that my cycle has shortened big time. Can this happen or is my body playing some cruel joke on me?

So cd1 was 14th August - that would make O today cd14 wouldn't it? Wouldn't that be ok?

PS. I love your reason for editing, I'm always doing that!

It's probably a combo of diet and weight loss that has messed with your cycle, but a wonky cycle can be a good thing for TTC pink (it can mean your hormones are fluctuating and if nothing else, they are different than they were before.)

You can def. O twice in the same month! Your body doesn't know what month it is, it just goes off of what is going on internally.

Question - did you relax on diet at all in your month off?? That could def. trigger a shorter cycle/quicker ovulation. Your body was thinking food was scarce and now things are better so it wants to get pg quick while it has the opportunity.

Another thing to consider if I remember right, you are my age (40's) and sometimes our cycles just go haywire at this age unfortunately! The joys of perimenopause :/ I apologize if I have you mixed up with someone else!!

@Atomic--Yes, I'm in my 40's. I did relax on the diet just a bit and ate a little more protein. I still kept my salt down though. I had no idea it would make such a difference.

@Zanacal--It is CD14, it just seems too close together. As for the editing it seems like I expect everyone to just know what's going on with me without explaining it!

The odds are good that you would have ovulated more close to normal anyway. Our bodies tend to bounce back after diet even if we don't eat more.
