Sorry if this is a bit long but here goes.
I had my dd in May 2012 and since May 2013 have been ttc no 2. I fell pregnant in March this year but sadly had a mc in May (was scanned and told baby stopped developing at 5 weeks even tho I was 9 weeks along).
Anyway, I seem to have a very short lp. Some months it is 5 days, others it is 11 (altho the average is 7-9). My periods are now so light that I use a panty liner instead of pad. Before having my dd my cycles were always 28 - 32 days long (and my periods a lot heavier) and now average 23 - 26 days, although I ovulate between days 15 and 19. I use temping and opks so I know I ovulate each month.
Before my mc, I had bloods done and my doc confirmed I was ovulating and said my progesterone was 'normal', but gave me no further info.
Can anyone give me any advice? I am desperate for another child but my body wont cooperate
I am going to try and see a doc again this week. From what I have read it seems the most likely cause is low progesterone, any other ideas? My docs dismissed the idea that a short lp stops achieving pregnancy so may have to put up a fight to get any sort of help.
Thanks everyone
