ovulating or not?

[kwokj.livejournal.com]

I've been off the Pill (whoohoo! I outgrew my horrendous cramps!) for about 6 or 7 months and my cycle is back to what was normal for me before I went on the Pill. However, back then I anticipated my period by watching for the mucous changes that indicated ovulation. The change was so obvious with me that I wouldn't even need to be looking for it. Anyway, I am looking for it now, and I haven't seen it all this time since I've been off the Pill. I'm not overly concerned right now, since I'm not trying to get pregnant, but do you suppose I'm still ovulating? I suppose I could ask a doctor, but it's not pressing enough to make an appointment.

Supposing I wasn't ovulating... how long would it have to be after going off the Pill before it would be considered odd?

kay, that's all good, but it has nothing to do with her post.

if you wanted us all to see that, you could have just made your own post.

geez.

I could delete that... think I should? The last line about not trusting anything that bleeds 5 days and doesn't die is blatantly misogynistic.

Probably best to ignore unless this person escalates things.

(quoting myself) The last line about not trusting anything that bleeds 5 days and doesn't die is blatantly misogynistic.

not that I take the violent sexual imagery lightly, either.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that if you've been on the pill for a long time you should give something like 6-12 months before you figure on getting pregnant because it might take that long tos tart ovulating again..?

thanks. If this is the case, I just hope this doesn't mean that I'll start having similar cramps again when my ovulation kicks back in.

The offensive post has been deleted, and banned from any additional entries here. Depending on LJ Abuse, that person may or may not have their journal suspended as well.

Er, sorry I wasn't more clear. I don't know if the abuse team will move on it if it has been deleted. I did fully quote them in my report, as well as having saved the source code for the page, but I don't know if that will be sufficient.

Thanks for your speedy response, though (it was like 5 minutes!)

I've saved and stored the entry here, and submitted another comment to abuse. (I think the odds are slim that they'll act on it, but I did put the IP of the message in your journal for storage. If you like, I can cut and paste the whole entry there for you.)

I hope that helps!

Thanks, I'll let you know if they ask me. The FAQ says outside third parties should not report abuse, but since you are the moderator I think they won't mind and would not consider you ouside of the situation. You could comment to your report to let them know you have the entry if they need it, whatever you think is best. I did give them the full text when I initiated the complaint.

oh, very good. the IP information should be all you need then.
