This may seem like an odd question but I dont know if my cycle would be considered 'irregular' or not. Google says things like 'they are if they are consistently shorter than 24 days or longer than 35 days' or 'if you dont know when your period will come'
My cycles vary between 24 and 28 days with them being 26 probably 50% of the time and then sometimes 24/25 or sometimes 27/28. I start spotting very very lightly when I wipe for 2 days before I come on so on my 24 day cycles this is at 11dpo which i suppose might be a problem.
I've been ttc for 9 cycles now since coming off the pill with no luck. We have been quite relaxed about it, just dtd and seeing how things go but on cycle 6 and 8 I used ovulation sticks just to make sure I wasnt getting things totally off and one time I got a strong peak at CD13 and the other a strong peak at CD11. I am pretty sure I know when abouts I ovulate as I get loads of fertile mucus and then dry up and the sticks kind of confirmed that so I left checking things.
Anyway, should I be concerned about 'irregular cycles' or is it normal for your cycle to vary this much? I started my periods at 11 and went on the pill at 19 and during my off-pill years my cycles also varied like this.
