Talk to me about short luteal phases of under 10 days

Mine is, I worked out using a CBFM, only 9 days long which may account for our recurrent miscarriages.

I'm giving B6 and progesterone cream a go to see if I can lengthen it but do they work? If they don't what other options are there?

Has anyone successfully carried a pregnancy with a 9 day LP?

Taking B6 or better yet a B complex is known to lengthen the luteal phase. I'm not going to start doing that myself unless my cycles continue to be short (cycle 2 right now).

It might be worth talking to your doctor to get your progesterone levels checked to be sure that they are actually low.

Yeah I did. Nine or ten days here. Starting to TTC #2 now and it makes me nervous. Maybe last time it only happened cos I ovulated slightly earlier. I have a big tub of B6!
