So I can ovulate even if cycle is longer
Brief Answer:
Even if the cycle is longer,you can still ovulate.
Detailed Answer:
Hi again dear,
I already reviewed the attached reports.
I see that your cycle is longer due to Triamcinolone.
Even if the cycle is longer, you can still ovulate.
If the cycle is longer, such as 35 days, the ovulation day can be at day 21.
I recommend to use the ovulation tests to track the ovulation.
Hope it helps dear,
