Is it possible to ovulate every OTHER month?
I've been temping only for two months now (this being the second) and my temperature hasn't dipped and I haven't had my usual O pains (or if I did they were very minor) - its already Day 25.
I'm trying to remember if that's usual for me (no cramping every other month and other signs) and for some reason I can't.
So is it possible to ovulate every other month?

It is absolutely possible, which usually happens as a result of one ovary not functioning properly since each month generally alternates which ovary releases the egg.

My dr. told me it is not true that they alternat. They can, and some people do, but you can o fropm right side 3 months in a row, then o from the left. Dep. on the person...thats what the dr said anyway

This is true. It's whichever ovary has the most mature follicle at the time of the LH surge.

That's what I thought as well but didn't have the data to back it up.
OP - Unfortunately, it may not alternate so 'nicely' - you might just have to see each month. Or, hopefully, it's just a delayed ovulation.

It is possible to O every other month. It is also possible this month (for whatever reason) you have delayed ovulation. Not everyone experiences a temp dip before O, but everyone gets a temp spike after, so don't look for the dip.

This is all helpful -thank you. I'm going to wait and see - maybe it is delayed.
