Why isn't FF giving me a new cycle?

in Trying to Get Pregnant

My last cycle was super weird for me - 39 days long.  When I finally got my period, it lasted 10 days (also weird for me) before I called my OB and she started me on a 10 day course of prometrium.  I stopped bleeding from Day 11 - Day 18 and then started bleeding again.  My OB said to count my first day of bleeding after starting the prometrium as CD1.  But FF hasn't advanced me to a new cycle. 

I know things are whack, but I thought FF always started a new cycle when you entered bleeding.  Am I missing something?

    Could you post a link to your chart?

    Also, why did your doc start you on prometrium after you had your period?  I thought that was prescribed to induce your period, which would be why you bled again.

    Can you go to the Cycle menu and choose "Start a new cycle"?

    It probably wasn't a real period but annovulatory bleeding.  We checked my progesterone last cycle and it suggested that I hadn't ovulated.  So we're trying to get my cycles back on track.

    I guess I've just never heard of giving prometrium right after having your period...it seems kind of counter-intuitive since all it does is make you have another period.  Well, either way I hope your cycles start back on track soon!
