17DPO and consistently raised BBT but no pregnancy symptoms

Hi everyone

I had an early miscarriage at 6 weeks. A week late I had a negative pregnancy test and HCG levels had dropped to confirm it. We decided not to "try try" again but just see how it goes. From my natural cycles app it looks like we may have DTD around when I was ovulating.

I've not had a period since the miscarriage and my app has now predicted I'm 17DPO but other than the missed period there is no other symptoms. With my last one I had big sore boobs, and needing to urinate a lot more. I did also have cramps but looking back I feel these were to do with the miscarriage.

My question

Does anyone think I may be pregnant? Basically I'm scared to take a test in the fear it says not pregnant and then I have to wonder why I've had such a continuous rise in BBT without a positive test (average is 12DPO for period). Has anyone else experienced this and then had a period? After the miscarriage I'd very much set myself up for possible 8 weeks without a period but for my app not to confirm ovulation and temperature rise so quickly confirming things were getting back to normal. (I am currently going into my 6th week without a period)

I don't know if it helps give anymore information but this is my basal body temperature chart this month. Green section is my temperature since ovulation

I wonder if you ovulated around CD31 which would make you about 10dpo? There looks to be a clearer temp shift after that and it's not unusual to ovulate later after a MC

Yes that could possibly make sense.

I had a positive LH test on day 23 but that could possibly of been wrong

Can you measure temperature in vagina after ovulation ?

So it turned out I was pregnant. 18 weeks and counting 😁

Great! But is it safe to measure BBT inside vagina after conception?

JJV571989 · 23/08/2024 08:37

I'm not sure I can't say I've ever done it. I always just took my temperature in my mouth and that always seem accurate
