how do i know if im still ovulating



    
Asked by female-in-distress (Female; 21 ) on Thu 07, May 2009 01:08pm

since january i stopped noticing the wet, slimy discharge stuff that most girls experience during ovulation so i got my ovaries checked and apparently my hormone levels are good and normal. So i started wondering if maybe i was ovulating during my period but i read up on it and doesnt seem to fit either. Im thinkin it has something to do with me being emotionally unstable, or at least i feel like i am. Ever since my miscarriage we kept trying without succeeding and its very depressing. I cant help but worry about whether i will ever be able to again or if i was and just keep having miscarriages without knowing. My menstrual cycle seems to be getting longer, from 30 to 35 days. I probably just think about it too much but i cant help it, i have tried all sorts of stuff but i guess nerves just get the best of me. I hope you can suggest soemthing to ease my mind so i can relax maybe and then things would be fine

Hi, It is good that your hormone levels were normal. Psychological recovery for parents who had a previous miscarriage in general can take a long time. This could have an effect in your trying to conceive again. Local Support groups are important. If not, prescription medications may help you relax. There are also ovulation predictor kits available that looks for luteinizing hormone (LH), the hormone that increases prior to ovulation, and help you predict when you will ovulate. I hope this helps. Take care and regards.
