What denotes a 'regular' cycle?

I'm getting my period every 24-29 days. How much smaller a window do I need before I'm... 'regular'?

Re: What denotes a 'regular' cycle?

I thought that was considered regular

Re: What denotes a 'regular' cycle?

I'd give anything to get it every 24-29 days! Sounds regular to me.

Re: What denotes a 'regular' cycle?

I think of "regular" not in how many days a cycle is, but that everything is working. As in, you ovulate and get af 10-16 days later, whenever that is. If that happens, you're golden.

24-29 days sounds like a dream! My cycles this year have been between 33-74 days, almost all of which have been anovulatory. That's "irregular."

Oh okay!!! Sorry, noob here.

How can you tell if you AREN'T ovulating?

... if there's no spike in temp?

Re: What denotes a 'regular' cycle?

A spike in temps confirms ovulation, yes.

But if your cycles are 24-29 days there's no reason to think you're not ovulating. Anovulatory cycles are a lot longer than that, in my experience and from what I've read.

Have you joined FertilityFriend or a web site like that? I'm on FF and it helped me so much to understand this stuff!

I use mymonthycycles to keep track.. I dont use or even know all the features they have.

Right now I just insert the days I get my period.

Re: What denotes a 'regular' cycle?

I'm every 27-29 days so i'm pretty reg. I think you would be considered reg too.

Re: What denotes a 'regular' cycle?

ahhhh i would kill for that!!!!!50 days is good for me lol

that sounds very regular to me and if its always that no reason to thin u wouldnt ovulate..u could temp a few months just to see if u r or one month justtry the opks..

i think..think14 days from ur period is when u should ovulate if u r regular so maybe start a opk then
