Usually when I ovulate I just get the normal excessive mucus and BAD cramps on one side of my body. This time around I actually had sex during the time that I was ovulating. We used protection (even though the mucus made it slip a little it didn't slip off). I didn't get my usual cramps. I got hints of cramps but not the usual painful ovulation cramps. So my questions are:
Could it be that the sex relieved the cramps some? and also: it's been 6 days since then and I've just felt really tired today. Can ovulating make you tired as well?

Hello,

It is difficult to say with just one experience as to what the specific variable is that caused this. You may be on to something though. Hmm, as for tiredness, have you been eating a lot of dairy, sweets, and/or starchy carbohydrates (like breads, grains, etc)? These kinds of foods usually wear me down.

The breakfast I had was a smoothie so yes plenty of carbs. And thank you for answering my question.
