So here I go.. I have been TTC and was wondering if anyone has taken B6 supplement to extend their LH phase? I am a late ovulator and my O is on day 25-29 during every cycle, but recently, my LH phase has only been 8 days and then I get my period. I have been using ovulation detectors (clear blue easy smiley face) and have been temping. I am not even sure I am really releasing an egg as I have had ectopic pregancies before, but I would like to try taking B6 to see if that will help extend by LH phase.. advice please?
 
I am taking a b6 & b12 complex with folic acid and after the first month of taking it have seen my ovulation date come between 3 - 4 days earlier and my lp is about a day longer. I take it every day along with my prenatal supplements.
No harm in trying, just remember to take it as a complex to help it be absorbed.

Good luck
 
b6 & b12 helped my LP for sure! As the previous poster said, make sure you take it with b12, also.
 
My OH has been taking it for 4 months and it has lengthened her LP by a day or 2 and her pmt is also not as bad. She just takes 50mg a day. Though you can take more we opted for lower high dose x
 
Thank you everyone! I will be picking up some B6 and B12 today to see if it helps! Fingers crossed!
 
I also was using both B6 and B12, but my dr gave it to me to increase the amount of fertile cervical mucus. It worked well for me!!
 
i have just bought a b-50 complex which has b6 and b12 and other goodies in :haha:
Will start mine today
 
Can you get this at cvs or Walmart? Which brand? Does it matter when in your cycle you start to take it?
 
I took b6 for the first time this month on CD1. It brought ovulation forward by 9 days and increased LP from 4 to 8 days. I'm slightly upping the dosage this month to hopefully increase my LP further!
 
Ok so I started taking b6, b12 and folic acid supplements on cd4 and I am on cd10 right now and my ovulation is already way earlier (on CD 8-12 instead of CD25-29). I am not sure if it can work that fast, but if it did, YAY!! The doses I am on is just the standard that they come in, but I saw on amazon, they had a combination dose that might be better. I am usually very irregular, so I am hoping these supplements will make my O date more regular and everything.. fingers crossed!
 
didnt realise it could bring ovulation forward to such... anyone else experience delayed or earlier ovulation when using this??

When I was doing research, I found a lot of reports of earlier O, longer LP, and increased CM when using b6, b12 and folic acid supplements.
 
I actually only took 100mg of B6. Didn't take any B12. Worked on bringing my LP from 10 days to 11-12 days (mostly 12). I had 26-27 day cycles. I don't know if it's just coincidence or not but I got my BFP's both times while taking them (first was a MMC)
 
For those who have found it lengthens the LP does it extend cycles or bring ovulation earlier. Since it mainly boosts progesterone levels which area a post ovulation conditions I would have thought it would lengthen cycles, not shorten the folicular phase.
 
For me, it brought ovulation forward but didn't extend my cycle length
