Hi there
This is our second month TTC, so I'm fairly new to LH surges and BBT.
I usually have approx 35 day cycle. Last month, for whatever reason, I started on/off bleeding on day 25, it turned into a normal period after 7 days and was 14 days bleeding total (7 strange on/off, 7 normal).
I started afresh once the bleeding stopped. I'm using OPK (Clearblue) as well as BBT (Ovucore)
I got a 'Peak Fertility' smiley via Clear Blue test on CD11. Temp dipped and then began to climb. All looked normal. Then my temp dipped again. I checked OPK test and got a negative. When it dipped again (today), I re-tested and got LH surge on both Clearblue and - just to check! - a Boots OPK test.
So, it looks like I might be having a double LH spike. Which implies I didn't ovulate at the first spike. I'll have to wait and see if I get a temp rise now to indicate successful ovulation. So it's a waiting game really. But I wondered if anyone else gets this regularly?
I am quite physically active. I've had a regular cycle for years, but exercise has stopped my periods in the past, so I've cut out intense exercise (still doing easier stuff) from the start of last month. I do wonder if reducing exercise intensity could have just confused hormones.
