10 Day Leutal Phase

6 replies

RLI1105 · 16/03/2019 19:54

Hello, I'm just after some advice/ hear some experiences....

I came off the pill at the end of December and am currently in Cycle Day 1 and this cycle will be out first TTC. Grin I'm really excited and have now had two cycles, one loosely tracked and my most recent one I used OPK's and temped.

As much as I'm happy to have gone back into some form of normal rhythm post pill, my leutal phase is only 10 days long.

I've read a bit about it and some information says anything less than 12 days is an issue whereas I've seen other pieces of literature that say 10 days is borderline but okay. I've read other things as well about miscarriage being more common.

I was wondering if anyone had experience conceiving with a short leutal phase?
Has anyone else's lengthened as well the longer they were off the pill?
Any advice appreciated!

My cycles never came back after I had DS until I stopped breastfeeding. My LP was definitely shorter to begin with and lengthened. Fell pregnant on the 5th cycle after they returned. I remember reading into short LP too and 10 days is the number I remember as being ok!

Just looked back at my charts.
Cycle 1 - 9 days; cycle 2 - 11 days; cycle 3 - skipped tracking; cycle 4 - 12 days; cycle 5 - BFP

Hope this helps :)

When I started fertility acupuncture my 10 day LP immediately lengthened to 12/13 days 😊

Mines was 10 days too but lengthened to 11 when I started taking pregnancy vitamins.

Thanks everyone!
I've been taking pre-pregnancy vitamins since December so maybe that will help!
I guess the only thing for it is to just crack on and see.... Smile

Mine was 9 days for a few months and 30-40 day cycles (was still breastfeeding 2 year old) and I got pregnant in month 6 when I guess it must have lengthened. Best of luck!
