When does luteal phase end? Spotting?

Hi everyone, after 4 CPs in 6 months and a quieter day in work, I have been driving myself mad with Dr Google. I suspect I may have a luteal phase prob as I do tend to spot before my period (this month I spotted at 10 dpo with period starting - proper blood - sorry TMI - at 15 dpo).

Is this an indication of a LP defect or given that I only start bleeding properly at 15 dpo I'm OK?

Any guidance would be great! Thank you!

I've got it ordered and on the way :)

I’ve been advised ( not by a dr) that but b6 is very good for lengthening Luteal phase.

I was on the pill for a very long time (from 16 to about 27), I'm 31 now and since then I have had this spotting.

That is reassuring - I think I am clutching at straws hoping that this is an easy issue to be fixed. I've been quoted £3.5k by a fertility clinic for all the tests so been trying to find answers via Dr Google!

I just feel a bit lost to be honest.

I don’t know- but am exactly the same. Have had 3 full term pregnancies though, if that gives you any reassurance? Is this a new thing or a long term thing?
