Hi,
Basically at 17 I had cysts and was told I had polycystic ovaries. I had periods every like two weeks. I was put on the pill for it. Anyway fast forward ten years. I'm not actively trying to get pregnant but was having pains- they scanned me and saw no cysts etc just quite a few follicles.... I had just had my period though. (Withdrawal bleed on the pill) . Although, I'm not actively trying to get pregnant I decided to come off the pill for a while just to see as it's confused me being tested and having no cysts when I have had scans before and always had some. I wanted to see how they were naturally. Anyway, my period was due a couple of days ago and I've had nothing. I've done an early detection pregnancy test and a normal one on different days both negative. Anyway, I was wondering do people think it's a good idea to test to see if I ovulate with those ovulation detection kits you can get? I basically want to get a better more up to date pic of things. This is because if I don't get a period or they become irregular then I can push for the fertility drugs when it does come to it.
