Happy Sunday to everyone!

I have an odd question that I would like to pose to anyone with any insight about this subject. My DH and I are discussing going on a 3-day fast next week. We have heard of the great health and cleansing benefits of fasting. My question is, will fasting have any affect on my ovulation this month? If I do this, it would be on CD10-12 and I usually ovulate around CD18 or 19. The book I am currently reading mentions avoiding any extreme dieting or exercise while TTC but I'm assuming that they mean long term rather than just a 3-day thing. Can anyone give me any advice?

Thanks. Take care and enjoy the remainder of your weekends!

But I just wanted to see if you can recommend a good website on fasting. Does it have to be 3 days? Can you drink liquids??? Just curious.

Sue, I don't know anything about fasting, but I wouldn't think it would affect your O since it's a full week prior to O. I think any stress your body feels might delay it if anything. Now if you were doing it a day or 2 before O, then I'd be concerned about that cycle... Wish I could help more. GL, Susan
