Talk to me about short luteal phases of under 10 days

[Morethanalittlebitconfused]

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?

May I ask how long the b6 took to work? I've bought some today and am expecting to ovulate in about 7 days, do you think I'll have enough in me to work for this cycle?

I can't remember, sorry Chilli

I do know it worked the first cycle I took it. But I can't remember when in my cycle I took it, IYSWIM.

Lots of luck to you, though

Also, I think I took a B-vit complex cos apparently B6 on its own doesn't work as well. I think.

I'm taking a B vit complex and B6 on top so it keeps it in balance

Mine was 8/9 days when trying to conceive DC2 (also breastfeeding). I struggled to get pregnant and had a couple of early miscarriages. I tried acupuncture and B6, and it crept slowly up to 11 days. I got pregnant with DC2 the month after it hit 11 days, and had a really straightforward pregnancy.

However, it was also 8/9 days (I had recently stopped breastfeeding my 2 year old) when I was definitely not trying to get pregnant with DC3 (I know how long it was as was relying on Persona / charting as contraception), and I'm now 21 weeks. I didn't take anything at all, as I wasn't planning a pregnancy (although I'm quite excited about it!).

AF arrived today so that's an improvement!

I'm also now taking B6 to try to length mine. It is 10 days and I had lots of spotting last month. I'm taking 60mg of B6 daily.

I've been checked by doc and everything was normal, but I've been ttc for 13 months now.
