I’ll take your prayers...

Months 18 & 19 of monitoring... never been quite like this...

Last month my thyroid dose was changed at the same time as some major stress at work. So ovulation failed and a cyst formed instead, which finally burst/released 18 days past my typical cycle length.

So then this month... ovulated several days early when I never had a LH surge. I consulted Dr Google and apparently this is compatible with “weak ovulation.” My temps rose for several days consistent with ovulation and I dried up/no CM, but still spotting. Then FULL ON HEAVY PERIOD with painful cramps after just 17 days.

Apps are considering it all one 20-day long period now. Based on temps and other symptoms I do think I ovulated and am now having a true progesterone withdrawal bleeding/ period (the breakthrough bleeding after anovulatory cycle was not painful at all).

I have a blood draw tomorrow morning for CD 3 (or 4), another one at CD 21 (or 7 DPO) and then an appointment in early September.

Prayers would be very much appreciated. My body is exhausted, physically and mentally.
