I have always heard that the luteal phase stays fairly consistent, but the follicular phase is more variable. I almost always ovulate on CD15- about 80% of the time, 20% on CD14. LP ranges 10-13 days. How consistent is each part of your cycle?

Pretty consistent before my son but after having him my cycles became a bit wonky. Especially my luteal phase. I am still nursing though.

Pretty consistent before some crazy wackadoo cycle last month. So I'm interested in seeing what happens this month.

My cycles used to be really regular, 29 days every time, ovulation on day 14, but now really irregular. Both of my phases vary by a few days, I've had a cycle 30 days and the next month 25. I've been taking vitex to help regulate.

Inconsistent, always has been. I don't really know what phase is the inconsistent part of it.

These are my first few months tracking, but my cycles are usually 28 days, almost down to the minute.

I was very consistent at 28 days, and while I didn't track for more than a couple months, it looks like I was ovulating exactly on day 14, very consistently. When I was younger (teens through early 20's), I never tracked O but I had highly irregular cycles. Anywhere from 30 to 45+ days. I don't know really what regulated them, except it did happen to coincide with when DH and I started dating, so I was getting laid on a regular basis for the first time.

Erm-not at all, apparently. Coming off BC they were funky for a few cycles, but then settled into 28-days and I thought all was gravy. Last cycle was 31/32 days, O on CD 19, and I am now at "high" on my fertility monitor with sticky/wet CM at cycle day 9! All signs point to O well before CD 19. I'm so confused!

My cycle has been consistant for years without birth control (28 days) but I still have "unexplained infertility"

When I first starting charting last may my cycles were consistently 31 days. The in October I had an early 28 days, then 31 again, and now 28-29 since then. So I think it's changing! I usually ovulate between 13-15

Same as @MrsMccarthy: I was very consistent pre-baby, but am having wonky cycles post-baby and also still nursing.
