Is it possible/likely to ovulate earlier after an anovulatory cycle?

My last cycle was anovulatory, now I'm on CD10 and I was surprised to find EWCM tonight.  So far I have ovulated between CD20 and CD24, and the earliest I've had fertile CM was I believe CD17.  I've always had cycles that were on the longer side whenever I'm not on BC.

Could having an anovulatory cycle possibly cause me to ovulate earlier than expected this time around?  I know that EWCM does not necessarily equal ovulation, but I'm just pretty surprised to be having it so much earlier in my cycle than ever before.  This is only my 4th cycle off of BC, so I know it could just be my body regulating, but I figured I'd ask you ladies what you thought.  I couldn't find much on Google.

I doubt it would have anything to do with an anov cycle.

Okay, I didn't really know.....it just seemed so weird for me to get fertile CM this early, so I was just wondering.

Hopefully I do O in the next few days, it would be nice to have a shorter cycle for once!

I doubt it's related. It's entirely possible that you might not even O any time soon also. I sometimes get EWCM for 7-10 days before O.

Anything is possible, keep using opks and good luck!

Interesting you put that out there, I had my longest cycle ever cycle 2 cycles ago (45 days or something) though it did end in ovulation.  My next cycle after that was my shortest w/an O at CD16.  Not sure if the two are related but it's an interesting thought.
