Anovulatory cycles: during which an egg is not released, and there is no menstrual bleeding (period) are not uncommon. Anovulatory cycles can cause a woman to have periods less frequently, have shorter periods, and other menstrual irregularity. It is very likely that you have anovulatory cycles during which you cannot get pregnant. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is commonly associated with anovulatory cycles.
