Confused - help 🥺

Husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for several years now. We’ve both been tested and everything checks out. Docs can’t find a reason we aren’t getting pregnant. I used to check for potential ovulation with LH strips, and I’d get a positive every time. We then used to BD around prime time, but still couldn’t get pregnant. I also don’t ever get EWCM when I’m supposed to. I also wanna add that my cycles are regular, like 26-28 days (occasionally going to 30/31 but that’s rare)

Anywho, I just got off of a period about 5 days ago. Yesterday and today, I noticed an extreme amount of EWCM. We did do the deed yesterday, just for fun, so didn’t think anything of it. My cycles aren’t short, like ever, so I can’t understand why it would appear I’m ovulating that soon after my period ended. It’s not confirmed ovulation but EWCM is more common around ovulation so that’s why I’m saying that. But like, is it possible to ovulate that soon after my period with a regular cycle and just have like an abnormally long luteal phase? Is it possible that I’m COMPLETELY missing my most fertile days and I actually ovulate WAY sooner despite having a 25-28 day cycle?!

For several years of trying it would be hard to miss the fertile window every single time. I knew a woman once who was fed up with how long it was taking and so they had sex the entire month daily and got pregnant that month. That seems like a lot of work and probably luck on their part that month. But maybe go for every other day in the month?

I doubt you've been missing it entirely since you've been using opks. Have you ever tried BBT?
