To estimate conception with irregular periods, track your menstrual cycles for a few months to identify any patterns, and use ovulation predictor kits (OPKs) to detect the surge in luteinizing hormone (LH) that precedes ovulation. Monitoring changes in cervical mucus and using apps designed to predict fertile windows can also help. Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice and possible fertility evaluations if you're having difficulty determining your conception date.
