Q: Am I Ovulating & What's Up With My Period?

I'm 21 years old been on BC (pill & shot) for 3 years. I stop taking BC on 4/26/07. My period has been irregular (between 31 & 37 days). So, it's been almost 6 months. beginning that my period is irregular does that mean I'm not fertile or not ovulating?

Also, i started my period on the 4th of this month. I usually get bad headaches and very moody a few days before my period. I also get bad cramps. This month was different. I NEVER got one headache nor was i moody. I NEVER had any cramps at ALL! I mean I was not complaining be it was a bit weird because I never went without catching headaches or cramps except when i was on the shot because i did not have periods but even when i was on the pills I caught headaches and cramps but not as bad as when I was not on BC.

Can someone answer my question and maybe tell me what happen this month with/ my period?

If you have a period off of birth control then you are ovulating (most likely) and thus fertile (usually).

Sometimes periods are funny... Hormones can do all kinds of wacky things. Sounds like you got lucky this month! It happened to me last month! Random period, no cramps as a warning! I was like, "fwaah?"
