Hi all, looking for advice/words of hope!
Been TTC 'casually' for 3 years and properly tracking cycle and ovulation for 1 year. Cycle seems to range from 24-37 days and some months period starts just 5 days PO.
Has anyone ever had this sort of cycle and still managed to conceive? Is it worth booking a GP visit, I am trying to stay positive and not worry about it as everyone in real life tells me that it's not anything to be concerned about. Just looking to hear about positive experiences!

You generally need a ten day luteal phase minimum to be able to sustain a pregnancy, so if your period is coming that fast I'd definitely book a GP trip. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice, I'll do that!

Agree with PP, if your period is genuinely arriving 5dpo then that would suggest something is imbalanced somewhere and would be unlikely to be a long enough for a pregnancy. Good luck!
