I have a question. I have PCOS and at one point in time i didnt get my period for ever a year, now after taking Clomid last year I have been having a cycle, it wasnt regular in the beinning, but its starting to become more regular but it lasts very long (that is new, it now lasts for about a month). I am wondering if I am having cycles does that mean i am ovulating? or what would be the chances i am ovulating. Anyone have anyideas or anything, just looking for opinions, I have an appointment with my doc in 2 months so i figured i would see what you ladies know about this.
thanks

" I have PCOS and had to take Provera and Clomid to get pregnant with my first little girl i would have only about 1 period a year maybe two. But my doctor said that just because you have a period doesnt mean that you ovulate. Sometimes its just a period. Having a period for a month though can't be a good thing and has to suck for you!! "
