First Anovulatory Cycle-TMI

For those who had experienced an anovulatory cycle, is the color and flow of blood the same as a ovulatory cycle? Did you experience breast tenderness? I have light brown bleeding today with slight breast tenderness and I am wondering if this is normal. Thanks!

    I have regular cycles but I get light brown bleeding almost every cycle before the full effect of red flow hits me!

    I don't have any answers for you, but I was just thinking about you earlier today, wondering if you had any O news yet.

    Could you be gearing up to O still?  I mean, with the watery CM and the + OPK 2 days ago, is it possible that you're about to O? 

    Maybe you are spotting right now?  I see that you marked "light flow" on your chart.  Do you need a pad/tampon?  If it's so light that you don't need to use a pad or tampon, I would consider it spotting, especially since you described it as brown, and not red flow.

    Well, if red bleeding hasn't started then you're not on day one of your next cycle yet.  Are you sure you are not just ovulating today?

    I actually changed my status to light because I just wiped and there was brown blood and brown tissue. I def do not think I am ovulating.

    Do you need a pad/tampon?  Honestly, I think if it's not red flow, it's not AF.

    I did not expect anything this morning and when I used the restroom this afternoon, it was on my undies. I could have used a mini pad. I just checked and there is isn't anything. Maybe it is spotting. I will change it back. So confusing!

    Ugh, sorry it's so frustrating.  Only time will tell, I guess.

    Have you taken an OPK today?  Yesterday?

    Don't give up yet.  There's still a chance you will O, imo. Until you see AF for sure (red flow, need a pad/tampon), there's still hope that it's not an anovulatory cycle.

    The color my anovulatory cycles are brown-ish and not much flow. IT doesn't look like I'm on AF. I don't experience anything else.
