25 day cycle = too short?

My cycle used to be 27 days but since coming off mirena in July it seems to be averaging 25 days. Should I be concerned? Is this too short to stand a realistic chance of getting pregnant? AF has made another unwanted appearance this morning Confused.

It's not the length of the cycle per se, but the length of the luteal phase that matters.
If you chart your temperatures, you should be able to see how long you have between ovulation and menstruation - this needs to be at least 12 days, but is better longer.
Good luck!

Thanks, that's really helpful. I've been holding off charting as it seems a little stressful but maybe it would be helpful to start to check on that? I feel like things may still be a little off post mirena (very little CM, light periods), hoping it's nothing more than that. My first (nearly ten years ago) was a happy accident, but I'm a lot older now so seems it's not going to be so easy.
