Need some opinions on my chart please!

This is my 3rd month temping and my 3rd month taking a break from treatments and meds. If no pregnancy by Jan will start up IUIs again. The first 2 months I ovulated confirmed by my temps. This cycle I am unsure if I have ovulated or not. I have all the secondary signs, + OPK, ovulation pain, wet cervical fluid and my husband could tell I was ovulating when we were BDing because he says it feels "slimy" (sorry TMI and I'm assuming he's feeling the egg white cervical fluid) but I have not seen a thermal shift like I did with my first 2 cycles. I thought I ovulated on CD16 because I had the declining temps then the temp spike on CD17, but my temps have not stayed elevated. CD17 is an open circle because I took my temp 30 minutes later than I normally do. Do you think this is an anovulatory cycle for me? If I get my period this week when FF predicts it without a clear thermal shift confirming ovulation, I will be even more confused! I am no stranger to irregular bleeding, thinking it's my period, but I would definitely question if I do get my period this week if I ovulated or not. Help please!
Me: 37 DH: 37, married since Sept. 2013. "actively" TTC for a total of 13 months (after 7 months of TTC, took a 1 1/2 year hiatus due to work scheduling and wedding planning. Started up again after our wedding in Sept.) First evaluation by an RE November 2013

HSG-normal
OH-tiny polyp found, but RE assured me she doesn't think it's contributing to infertility and doesn't recommend me to remove it because it's so small.
DH's SA-normal
Hormones all within normal levels
Ovarian Reserve-RE says "is great" she's not concerned about my egg quantity (which I was until I saw her and results came back good!) 

04/2012 50mg Clomid=BFN (prescribed by OBGYN, not monitored)
06/2012 50mg Clomid=BFN (prescribed by OBGYN, not monitored)
11/2013 100mg Clomid, with HCG trigger=BFN (prescribed by RE, monitored with US (2 dominant follicles) and baseline bloodwork done)
01/2014 100mg Clomid, with HCG trigger-(prescribed by RE, monitored with US-1 dominant follicle)=BFN
06/2014 7.5mg Letrozole, HCG trigger (prescribed by RE, monitored with US-2 dominant follicles), IUI #1 on 7/3/14=BFN
07/2014 7.5mg Letrozole, benched for IUI#2 this cycle, because I ovulated on my own before my follicular US. Progesterone suppositories=BFN Diagnosed with PCOS this month too. Testosterone levels high at 76. =( 
08/2014 7.5mg Letrozole, HCG trigger with 19mm follicle. IUI#2 on 8/31 cancelled last minute due to family emergency. 
09/2014 Taking a 3 month break starting this month. If not pregnant in 3 months, will start up again with medicated cycles and IUIs. Had all my labs and AFC re-evaluated this month also. RE says nothing much has changed since my eval last November, okay for me to take a little break. =)

    I am new at charting and am so very confused with mine so I am I help. :( I just wanted to say good luck!
    I am not sure how to say this without getting a "solicitation" warning so I guess I just say that I am not longer active on THIS site.

    I don't have a ton of experience charting but your chart doesn't look like you've ovulated. It could be an anovulatory cycle. Are your cycles typically the same length? Also, I think that the temp shift confirms ovulation while EW CM and +OPK just tell you you are gearing up to ovulate. I could be wrong though...

    Thanks @Nikolie93‌! Good luck to you too! @susykat77‌ when I am regular, my periods are typically the same length. I have a feeling this will be an anovulatory cycle. Thanks for your input!
