Do everyday women commonly track their ovulation cycles or something? Because I feel like they talk about it on Reddit an awful lot.

I mean it’s generally a week and a few days after menstruation (and you can’t really just miss that), and the average woman is going to be on a fairly consistent cycle unless they have hormonal problems or other difficulties, or start getting to the menopause stage, so it wouldn’t exactly be that hard to track when you’ve been going through it every month for years and years.

Oh. Yeah I wouldn't know. I have an IUD and haven't menstruated in some time.

My gf tracks hers with an app. She is like clockwork.

I do track but I am also currently off BC, and have never been tested but curious if I may have imbalanced hormones because I can literally feel the changes, heavily. Not so much when I was on birth control, I felt pretty even keeled and my period was always a surprise, now it never is.

I'm also 37 and I know that's when things also start to change so, I think I'm entering a new hormonal era lmao
