TCOYF question (perhaps a Tuesday question)

ohashlet

I'm at work and don't have my copy in front of me, and admittedly need to brush up.

My friend who just started reading it asked me if I ever temped during my period, and says that TCOYF says you should because you can get pregnant during your period.

I told her if it said that, then it is probably right but I think she may be reading it wrong?

What say you, BOTB?

I've never read the book, but I wouldn't think you could get KU when your lining is shedding

It's rare to ovulate during your period, but you're right, it is possible.  If it takes more than a few cycles of charting, then you'll begin to see a pattern and you can usually stop temping during your period.

Fertilization can happen (especially in the tubes) while shedding lining.  But yeah, rare.

I basically said what Robinsokj said, but told her I'm no expert.

Yup.  This.
