Trying but not trying?

I don't have periods and I don't ovulate. My husband and I decided to "not try not prevent" until May but I have been thinking about how there is still basically no chance for me to get pregnant. So it feels weird to even be "ttc" but also knowing that unless I actively do the work with medication that there is no chance. I guess not try not prevent is a privilege only non PCOS/anovulatory people get to have lol

I want to start a glp1 to help with my pcos and my weight so maybe that will help with my cycles and my weight before getting pregnant. Does anyone here have any advice for anovulatory PCOS and glp1?

Triggering with 4?

My doctor is ok with triggering with 4 dominant follicles. Not all will necessarily be 18mm+ at trigger (they may be around 16mm-17mm with hopefully 1-2 18-20mm). I am leaning towards going forward with 4. Looking for any opinions as I make my choice?

I am okay with twins, I would choose selective reduction with triplets or quads.

LH surge or just false hope?

This was my first natural period since stopping birth control in April 2025. I’ve had some progesterone withdrawn bleeds since then, but when I got my cycle on August 31, I was so excited!!

I started LH testing and saw a few levels around .75-.80 and thought I might have ovulated on CD21 and just missed the testing peak.

Today, it’s CD 32 and I thought “why not take an LH test” because all my pregnancy tests have been negative and I didn’t take one this morning. So I took my LH test and saw the darkest test I’ve ever seen that had levels of about .90ish. The lines looked pretty much the same!

Am I having another ovulation attempt or is this just a false LH surge? I don’t know what to do!!
