5:2 Affected Ovulation?

I'm currently TTC and have been advised to start getting my BMI down in case we need to go the route of IVF. I have PCOS and read that intermittent fasting can help with insulin resistance as well as helping with weight loss.

However this is my 1st month doing the 5:2 and my ovulation is unusually late - even with the PCOS I have a window ( granted a large window ) when I normally ovulate but I'm on cycle day 29 now and still nothing. The only change I have made is starting the 5:2. It has helped with my weightloss, but now I'm concerned it's affected my ovulation.

Has any one else had this happen? It could just be a coincidence but when every month counts I'd rather not take chances if it's this affecting it.

Any advice would be so appreciated!
