Its possible. You need to start charting your cycle to see if you are ovulating each month. You can either take your Basal Body Tempature every morning for a few months or use ovulation strips. Good Luck!!

Everyone's cycle is different. There is a myth that woman ovulate 14 days after their period begins...but that is only an AVERAGE and each month can be different. The other thing is that sperm can live inside you for up to 5 days.... The only way to know is to know exactly when you ovulate. There are several ways to know and some are more effective than others. Some can only predict before ovulation happens and some can only predict that is has already happened. The absolute best info I can give you is to go read a book called Taking Charge of your fertility by Toni Weschler. It will help you understand your body and all the myths about it. It will help you time when you are ovulating and the best times to conceive – or not! . It's about knowing your body and knowing when you are fertile or not. My husband and I tried for 1 year and had no luck..… We tried ovulation predictors , laying with pillows under me for 20 min. everything……the first month that I began using the book I realized that my timing was WRONG!. We got pregnant that very first month and I am now due Feb 2, 2007. You can pick and choose what you do with your info. Good luck and don't listen the all the myths! Even if you don't get into charting and everything....it will help you in so many ways!

It could mean that you have a short luteal phase. The time from ovulation to when you start your period. Almost all women that are capable of having children have a luteal phase of 14 days. Which means 14 days after they ovulate, they should have their period. After ovulation an egg needs at least 10 days to make it to the uterus where it can implant itself. If you have a short luteal phase the egg will not have enough time to make it to the uterus and thus would be discarded. I would talk to your doctor about this possibility. I believe they do have something you can take to lenghthen it. Good luck!!!

It could, if you ovulate every cycle. Go buy an ovulation predictor kit, it will tell you exactly when and if you are ovulating.
