We are TTC #1, and so far, no BFP. Based on Doctor Google's recommendation, I start taking B6 to lengthen my 10-day LP. I usually O around CD16 of a 26-day cycle. I've been taking B6 since CD1 this cycle, and I O'd 3 days later than expected, on CD19. I'm 9DPO now and have a feeling that AF is just around the corner, so I'm making plans for next cycle.
I understand that B6 works by boosting progesterone, but that it also affects estrogen, which I'm guessing is why I O'd so late (but I'm not a doctor). So, to the ladies who've used B6 to lengthen LP, do you use it all the way through your cycle? Or just after O? Should I keep taking it but cut down the dosage during the first half of my cycle so that I don't O so late next time?
