Prenatal vitamin uncertainty.

[Pmd1]

Hi Everyone,

I am new to this board. I am currently trying for a baby. I started tracking my periods over the last 3 months. Initially month 1 I had a 28/9 day cycle with 7/8 day bleed. Month 2 I had a 29/30 day cycle, 7 day bleed. Month 3 I had a 30/31 day cycle, 5 day bleed. The only changes I have made is taking preconception pregnacare vitamins over 3 months ago and vitamin B6 a month ago-50mg daily.

My query is are these changes a good or a bad thing? I have noticed in my tracking
that I ovulate later in the month,day 19/20, so is there a possibility the vitamins are lengthening my luethal phase or could they be just delaying ovulation?
Should I keep taking them or stop? Does anyone know if it is the vitamins,how much could they expand a luethal phase by?

I am hoping some of you will have experience with this.

Thanks a lot.

Hey! Your cycles sound very similar to mine, though I usually bled for 5-6 days each time. I was taking Fertility Smart for around a year but didn’t see much difference in my cycle as I was already quite regular. My periods aren’t like bang on every 28 days, they vary between every 27-31 days each month. Are yours usually bang on? I read a lot of reviews on prenatals changing cycles, sometimes even messing them up. In my personal experience, when I got pregnant, I wasn’t taking them. Tbh, just my advice, I’d only take maybe Folic Acid and Vit D. Some tips that helped me was using the Clear Blue ovulation strips and using Conceive Plus fertility lube! I got pregnant twice on that! Good luck

I took seven seas trying for a baby but that did the same to my cycle, pushed ovulation later. I stopped that and took folic acid, vitamin d, dha and COQ10 and my ovulation day went back to day 14! I’ve read a lot about the prenatal vitamins lengthening cycles xx

I took super b complex vitamins and definitely delayed my ovulation. Ovulated CD25 and normlay between 14 and 18. Stopped them now

Back on pregnacare. Doesn't mess with my cycle
