Hi ladies,

So I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries earlier this year after my periods had become really iratic - they have ranged from anything between 40-72 days since coming off birth control in November 2015.

I recently started temping using the Natural Cycles app as I had heard it’s the only way to tell if you are ovulating (I don’t think I’ve been ovulating for a while now). I did some reading up on how I could start to regulate my cycles for the best chance of conceiving naturally and came across Inofolic which I have been taking for 5 days. It contains folic acid and myo inositol and is meant to improve ovulation and egg quality in women suffering from PCOS up to 70%.

I’m currently on cycle day 54 (🙄) and yesterday I noticed - for the first time in as long as I can remember - CWCM. I woke up this morning feeling very ‘wet’ and sure enough more EW type CM. I decided to take my first ever ovulation test and I got a little over excited as I think it’s positive, but have just read online about how they are quite unreliable. My temps are all over the place (have attached a pic) but I had a noticeable dip this morning so not sure what this means or if it has anything to do with ovulation? I’ve attached a pic of the ovulation test too. I should also mention that I had some really really light spotting for 4 days from CD28 (literally only when I would wipe, not in pants etc) which disappeared but has come back again the past 3/4 days (again, only when I wipe) but I think this is quite normal of PCO.

Does anyone have any experience with Inofolic and/or ovulation test strips and temping? Is this a positive OPT? I’m quietly optimistic but also can’t believe that the Inofolic would be working magic after only 5 days...if (fingers crossed) everything went right this month and I did fall pregnant would the fact I ovulated so late in my cycle be cause for concern in terms of the babies health etc.? Sorry if my questions sound stupid but I’m quite new to all of this so would really love any help/advice from anyone with experience x
