A member asked:
Is it definite you have ovulated when you have a period even with pcos?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Having a period does not necessarily mean you have ovulated. It is possible to have what are called, "anovulatory cycles", where vaginal bleeding occurs that appears to be a period but no ovulation actually occurred.
