What now?

Macy • M. Dupont

Hi all - I’ve been trying for about a year now 😓

Yes sporadically I have been doing OPK’s, but for the past 5 cycles my average has been 30 days. I’ve been trying to be much better at logging and tracking my cycles…

In Dec 2020 I had laparoscopic surgery to remove a large - fluid filled - ovarian cyst INSIDE of my left ovary that I had for a LONG time. I had pain during sex about a year after I met my husband, and lived with it for years…I’m assuming that can set me back a bit with so much trauma to the area…the doctor said everything went well, and that I should have no issue becoming pregnant. He did not have to remove my left ovary which was great news because I was expecting, and he thought, he might have too based on the ultrasound.

I guess I’m coming into the stage of what now…what next steps should I take? I’m about 5 days before my expected period, but 2 days away if I’m starting @ cycle day 30. Anything I can add/change? I’m considering reaching out to my OB - he’s FABULOUS, but I’m also wanting to take into consideration what happened with my cyst…

Any advice would be lovely. I know a lot of women also struggling feel this way 😢
