A member asked:

I am having trouble tracking ovulation because i have irregular periods. i tried bbt but, mine changed a lot daily. am i doing something wrong?

Ovulation: It is very difficult to track ovulation when you have irregular periods as you are finding out. I don't think that a BBT is going to help you at all. You may have to just go to a fertility specialist who will check you for hormonal issues. They will then help you regulate your cycle and ovulate.
