Hi, my doctor rang to confirm that I'm ovulating :-)  :-P  I'm so happy. Xx OvuSense got my ovulation date exactly right!   I think my period is on it's way however, I'm pleased that I had my bloods done as I can see a difference in the temperatures between...

Before using OvuSense, I had three progesterone blood test that said I wasn't ovulating; they were always done at mid-point of my normal 28 day cycle.  I was being recommended to do a 'super ovulation' drug plan as a result!   This cycle, I pushed for one more blood test...
