Hi everyone,
I have a question and knew that this would be the best place to ask it.
Me and dp are hoping to start ttc in April after our wedding so I have been getting myself ready taking conception vits, stopping my contraceptive and just generally getting prepared and start tracking my cycles so I know what is going on.
I stopped my contraceptive pill in December and since then have had 2 cycles. my first cycle was 25 days with a 9 day luteal phase and this month it is a 24 day cycle with (i think) another 9 day luteal phase.
I know that this is a short lp and I was wondering at what point is it worth asking my gp about it. I dont want to waste their time if its too early to be concerned, but I also dont want to leave it too late as would still love be at a good ttc point in April.
Am I right in thinking they do blood tests to confirm if your luteal phase is short?
Do I need to wait until I have been ttc before I speak to them or can you almost self diagnose and they can check it for you.
Any help would be great as I am a worrier and I know that everyone on here will help put my mind at ease and stop me worrying over nothing.
Thanks
