Is it possible to ovulate without the temperature rising afterwards? Or does a lack of temperature rise mean that there has definitely not been any ovulation?
if you have a progesterone issue, yes....but then a pregnancy likely wouldn't make it.
typically though, your temperature will rise after ovulation.....I would say nearly always To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
What other symptoms have you had that you think you O'd?

I personally have ovulated w/o a temp rise (o was confirmed via blood work) so yes its possible, but is usually associated with a problem. (Pretty sure for me it was thyroid, b/c once that was in "Normal range" I had a definite thermal shift with O).
If you think you O'd (ie other symptoms to indicate) have your doctor do b/w to confirm. If you did O, with no thermal shift, I would have your thyroid levels checked.
Good luck!

Definitely possible, while temping works for the majority- it doesn't work for everyone.
However, it is a good startign point. If you are concerned about anovulation, you could ask for a progesterone draw at 7 days past what you think is Ov. That should give you more answers- or a better place to start.

I have had my thyroid levels checked, and that's not the problem. So far all they can find are slightly elevated testosterone levels. My ovulation tests are always positive so I can't use that anyway. I have all the signs of ovulation, but my temperature doesn't indicate that anything's happened.
I am a bit confused because my cycles have always been regular. While ttc our son I used ovulation tests and they worked fine and I ovulated every cycle and we had no problem conceiving. Something has happened since his birth though, and because of the constantly positive ovulation tests I see no other option than temping and it confuses me a bit. But I've also heard that with PCOS, if you have ovulation signs but temp never rises it means the body's trying to ovulate but can't do it.
