Weak ovulation
I have been trying to get pregnant for a long time. I seem to be in great health and my menstrual cycle is regular. I finally went to the doctor and had a check up, blood was drawn and tested. After a few weeks the doctor finally got a hold of me and told me that my ovulation is weak. My question is, is there such a weak ovulation?? If there is, can it be treated?? thanks.

There are lots of causes of not ovulating. Some are more easily treated than others. Good luck. alteripse 07:48, 1 May 2005 (UTC)

You should order the book, Taking charge of your Fertility by Toni Weschler. It gives lots of info about how to track your cycles and information about problems that can occur...not as vague as "weak ovulation". I've been using it to not get pregnant right now. Good luck.

Anovulation after menarche
Why is there no mention of the fact that anovulation is common in the first two years after menarche? Dyslexic agnostic 15:39, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Probably because no one has a reliable source for that information. Can you provide one?

Pregnancy
Is it possible to have menstrual cycles while pregnant? I Swedish teenage girl claimed to have had normal periods an thus not realizing that she was pregnant until it was too late for abortion.

 * Wonderful. Thanks for choosing this topic, and I'm looking forward to seeing your work. If you like, you can make a list of the sources you're planning to use and post the list here for feedback from experienced editors. Identifying good sources is usually the trickiest part of writing medical content on Wikipedia. By the way, please add four tildes ( ~ ) after your comments to make the wiki system add a signature for you. Cheers, Clayoquot (talk &#124; contribs) 18:12, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

Peer Review
Fantastic job on this page! I think the additions you all have made have really helped flesh out the causes, diagnostic tests, and treatments for anovulation. Some things to consider adding would be perhaps a brief discussion about the mechanism associating PCOS with elevated BMI and insulin resistance. That may make some of the weight-based/metformin recommendations in the treatment section make more sense. Also, it may be worthwhile to include some of the clinical signs of hyperprolactinemia that a patient may be able to notice on their own. But, overall, super solid work!
