soy isoflavones to help short LP? Endometriosis?

[katster37]

Basically, as the subject suggests! Am trying B6 and agnus castor, but read something about soy isoflavones to generally lengthen menstrual cycle and LP. Has anyone heard anything about this / tried it? I am desperate!!

I was also wondering whether endemetriosis might be a root cause of the short LP. I get heavy periods, pelvic pain but no pain during sex etc. I get lower back pain and cramps during AF. Does this sound like it could be endometriosis? My GP basically fobbed me off and said to come back in a year if I hadn't managed to conceive. She is supposedly an OB/GYN specialist. I said I had heavy bleeds lasting roughly 6-7 days out of a 27/28 days cycle, OV-ing on CD19 or 20 but she seemed unconcerned....

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Sorry I meant to post this on the conception board, but any thoughts welcome!!

how short is your LP? mine went down to 6-8 days cycle was 28-33 days, plus my periods went from pre ds1 heavy heavy to 2 days light light... i also had lower back pain and cramps...

ds2 is now 4 weeks old!!

i also took b6 and angnus cactus, plus a whole tonne of other supplements including wheatgrass and used pre-seed!

hope that helps! good luck

Thanks for your reply newmumof2, that is promising! And congratulations on your second baby!
My LP is abut 9 - 10 days but has been 8. My periods are v heavy and painful, lower back pain, cramps etc.
I will give B6 and Agnus castus a bit longer then and maybe look at the progesterone cream. Thanks v much for your reply!
