I had suspicions I ovulated. I even had suspicions it was on about cycle day 14. Then I had suspicions AF was coming... about 12 days after that. And HOLY SHIT can you believe I was right?? Do you realize this gives me a 29 day cycle? And do you realize that in the last 9 years, that's only happened ONCE, and that was on Femara? (clomid and injectibles couldn't do it). Even when I conceived E, I was on about a 45 day cycle.
I am too excited for this, I swear. My theory is that the break from pregnancy and nursing broke the PCOS cycle. You'll recall that I had longish but regular cycles on no meds post partum. But then they began lengthening, blood lipids got crazy, and back on Met I went. But since I was not yet as advanced in the PCOS as I was before E, it didn't take as much to get me back on track. It's enough to make one want to reconsider the whole no more pregnancies thing... Or at least lend my ovaries to someone who could use 'em.

Yay! That is certainly exciting.
I'm convinced that pregnancy permanently alters one's body chemistry. My hair is curly now and as you know, it used to be stick straight. My cycle is verrrry predictable now as well. I think you can definitely be excited! Maybe jump on that bandwagon again!! :-)
That's awesome! And I hear you. My RE had said is is possible, and I can tell you that, from the time the kids were 6 months old (and they are almost 28mo now), I have had a 'regular' cycle. It's insane!!!
That IS exciting!
Good for you!
Very exciting!!
