How To Calculate Ovulation Period With Irregular Menstruation?

My period cycle varies between 30-37 days every month. I am overweight (75 kg 5 6 ). I tried and reduced my weight till 66kg but then thyroid problem and was on tablet for 3 months. Then soon after I gained some weight the thyroid seems to disappear( which I constantly monitor now). My question is I cannot predict my ovulation period due to irregular periods. Do I need to check for PCoD? I want to try for baby and hence all the questions.

Hi

With irregular periods it becomes very difficult to predict ovulation . With irregular periods you can get commercially available ovulation kit and test every other day after 9 th day of your periods. Overweight and thyroid problems can cause irregular periods. both irregular periods and overweight are signs of PCODs , therefore it is good idea to get checked. I generally advise my patients to have intercourse every 2 to 3 days rather than on specific days .

Let me know if you have any other queries.
Thanks
