I think anytime is good to try...If ur period is irregular i dont think it matters...when u are on it u are most likely to get pregnant

Answer 2

Do the basal metabolic temperature where you take your temperature with a special thermometer every morning before you get up.
You keep track of it on a graph and the directions in the thermometer box will tell you how to tell when you are ovulating. This is a sure way to tell when you are ovulating. You can get the thermometer at Walgreens and probably other drug stores.
I had irregular periods all my life though I did get pregnant twice with Clomid.
I should have had my thyroid checked but my doctor didn't even mention it.
Then later in life I found out I had to take the thyroid med.

Answer 3

What you need to do is find out each month when you are ovulating to optimize your chances to become pregnant. You can do this by taking your basal body temperature and observing your cervical mucus throughout the day (when you go the bathroom).

You can find info on the "sympto-thermal method" of fertility awareness by googling that term or by going to www.ccli.org
You can also buy a copy of The Art of Natural Family Planning.

Thyroid function is really critical to reproductive health for women so I hope the meds help you out.

But even women with irregular cycles find that fertility awareness (and conception) is possible.
