I have a short luteal phase of 10 days and am currently on 9dpo (around 1/2 days until my period) i done a test this morning but it was negative (of course, i knew it was too early but why not torture myself lol) im wondering when it would be possible for me to get a positive. my cycle length is 30 days every month
So all of you out there with a short luteal phase, how long is your lp? how long is your cycle? and when did you get a positive?

Sorry for all the questions just trying to reassure myself and hear everyone's stories smile thanks all

I'm in a similar boat, so unfortunately can't offer advice, hopefully someone can!

Are you using any supplements at all to try and lengthen the luteal phase? Agnus castus, vit b6 - that sort of thing? I think progesterone creams is another option IIRC.

I've looked everywhere too and cant find any answers :( hopefully someone will comment with a similar experience.

I had a short luteal phase. It ranged from 10 to 11 days (had a 7 day one fun cycle too). I got my bfp after 7 cycles and on 12dpo - I hadn't tested as I was so sure I wasn't pregnant that I hadn't been keeping an eye on dates so I was surprised when I had got to 11dpo with no af, tested next day with a clear line.

I used Angus castus, evening primrose oil, maca root and preconception tablets. I also used preseed on last two cycles.

I conceived with an 8 day luteal phase after 3 months. I took vitamin E and a b-complex vitamin (b6 apparently more effective if taken as part of a complex).

Good luck Flowers

Hi, I seem to have a 10 day lp and previously got a BFP at 12dpo. I didn't test before so it may have been positive earlier. That pregnancy ended in MMC - nothing to do with short lp as im sure the pregnancy wouldn't have progressed to 9 weeks if it was. So I'm ttc again - can I just ask those of you who took a b-complex did you continue this after BFP? I've read mixed things about it potentially being harmful if stopped because your levels drop?

Newchapter2020 · 29/04/2020 20:37

I presume to fall pregnant with a short phase, ot depends on how quick it implants, before the lining goes?

@Fizzl I forgot I was taking the b complex (rattled while I walked TTC). I stopped taking everything once I got BFP (bar folic acid and vit d). I now 17 weeks and been no problem so far.
