Since I started charting almost five years ago, I've only had 34 cycles. I've never been a 28 day cycle type of girl. Let's face it, I just don't have that type of body.

Jan 28 - 107 days and counting.
If you take a look at my cycle lengths from when I started TTC, you will notice the first year or so, the cycles were fairly consistent ranging between the upper 30's and low 40's. That was my normal. Then, the second year I had two 117 day cycles. Every since then, I've been bouncing around between 30-something and 70-something days.
Now, I'm back to over 100 days and no sign of the bitch. Every once in awhile I'll notice a twinge in my abdomen or breast, or I'll catch myself being extra bitchy, but other than that I don't have nary a sign of an impending cycle.
This sucks. PCOS sucks. If I'm not going to have cycles, I should at least be able to be pregnant. Otherwise I feel like I'm wasting the 20 boxes of tampons I bought on sale two years ago. I guess if my ovaries are going to fail I might as well pick up a new hobby.

I hear ya PCOS sucks! .. my cycle lenghts are all over the place too and AF even desserted me for two years once...about the only thing I have left is the bitchy mood swings sooo sweet of her to leave those behind.. LOL at the new hobby!
I don't have PCOS, but a good friend does, and you're right. It totally sucks! And that new hobby of yours is, in a word, hilarious.
Dye the tampons blue wrap them around yourself and go as Picasso's blue period
Oh I soooo hear ya.. my record so far: 292 days
yeah... 2hundredand9f'n2
the average pregnancy is 266 days (IF you're a normal pregnant person and don't have a fucktard cervix...)
The day I threw out my feminine products=the day before f'n AF showed up.... PCOS is a dirty donkey fucking whore!! :D
Yes, I do absolutely agree - PCOS does suck, grrr... however, since I've started eating healthier and trying to lose weight, just losing 10 lbs brought back my cycle. The 2nd I gained that and then some weight back for a period fo time -the cycles disappeared and I was right back to once every 3 months... now, it's been 28-29 days since February...and believe it or not, I'm thankful. You know what I mean.
