Short Luteal Phase #2

[mascaraisamust]

For all things luteal phase, join us!

If you have a short one, have managed to extend one or haven't even a clue what one even is, here is a friendly bunch of ladies for all things TTC related!

I've spent the day at home poorly today with a nasty bug, been wondering how all these people on Jeremey Kyle find it so easy to have babies

Hope everyone else is doing ok xx

Oh Mrsunsure, am so sorry to hear this. From the other ladies experiences it does sound as though going private is worthwhile if theres any way you could afford it, esp as you can't get help from the NHS now. Thinking of you xx

Mrs my heart goes out to you that's so unfair. I really hope DH is taking good care of you. Life can be so cruel. How long did it take you to get a BFP?

Sending positive thoughts your way and virtual hugs xxx

Its so unfair especially after that amount of time Hugs xx

Mrs I'm heartbroken for you. I'm so sorry.

No bleeding as such, just a slight strange colour!

Mrs look after yourself xx

Mrs I'm so sorry xxx

Mrs I just don't know what to say. That is horrible. And on top of that to make you wait another week!

Xxx

I'm so sorry for your loss Mrs :(

Take very good care of yourself

I wasnt given a reason Mrs. I was just told it sometimes happens but I know you want to look for an answer for some sort of comfort I guess. I have to accept I'll never know, my pg levels were low but it could have been anything...

Please take time, rest and look after you are your partner.

Sunshine hoping you feel better soon.

It really is the best money I've ever spent. We're not massively flush, it was a few hundred quid but I would recommend to anyone in a similar situation to find the money, borrow it, credit card - whatever! You will get the answers you need with no bullshit hidden agenda i.e saving precious NHS budget

Going private was the best thing I ever did too. I agree with Mrs that it's straight to the point and they don't fob you off. They actually listened and felt my pain. It will take time Mrs, take care x

How is everyone else going? X

Mrsunsure, i had also considered buying the progesterone cream online but when it came to it I didn't want to mess about with things without a professional opinion, especially if there is another underlying issue. Did your bloods show you definitely have low progesterone?

I think it is good to have a plan re going private after xmas and give yourself something to aim towards. I think we may be doing the same as I am driving myself (and DH) mad worrying about what if it never does happen and what will we do etc etc. I'm just getting the SA and basic bloods out the way to save a bit of money when going private. x

I don't mind Mrs. My mc was at the end of August. I had long cycle after it (about 48 days before AF turned up). However the LP never changed and according to CB opk I ovulated first cycle (however I question that).

I have got pregnant in my second cycle since mc (felt longer due to long AF) with progesterone a few days after ovulation. I considered buying cream but I agree with sunshine that I didn't want to risk messing up my body. I think seeking private advice would be best but give you and your body time to recover. Call and get quotes now. Make an appointment for the new year.

Mrs, I had mine checked twice at 6/7dpo, they were 33 the first cycle and 51 the next
Just this minute received a letter from my GP with details of my referral in, via the next door neighbour! It was posted to me on the 30th October! Fuming!!

I think 30+ means you're very likely to have ovulated. I'm really not sure where I've got that figure from though. I think I read it on MN somewhere? Has your GP never referred you to a gynaecologist? I fibt understand why they haven't when you be been ttc for nearly two years?
