Duo Fertility fertilty report received..advice needed pls

[choccielover]

I've been doing Duo fertility www.duofertility.com since July and have just received my fertilty report for the first 4 cycles. Has anyone else who's on DF got one yet???


This is just part of the report:
"Your luteal phases are also quite irregular in length, varying from 10 to 15 days, which is slightly more variable than average. This phase is of sufficient length for implantation to occur. However, your temperature is not always maintained throughout the luteal phase; this may indicate that your progesterone levels are not sustained, and may affect your potential for implantation. In particular, in three of your cycles the length of high temperature is less than 9 days, which is the minimum number of days for implantation to occur."

I thought that myself so took myself off to the docs for a blood test and apparently it all came back normal and because I am ovulating...case closed.

Can anyone recommend what to do now? I'm nearly 38!

there is another thread on here called Duofertility and one of the ladies on there has just got her report back, i had a read last night.

I would print out your charts and fertility report and go back to your doctors and demand more tests. Good luck

What tests have you had done? day3 bloods? HSG? Semen analysis?
Are you awaiting treatment with the NHS?

Given your over 35 and also have relatively short cycles/follicular phase I would probably consider having an AMH test done to measure your ovarian reserve. A low ovarian reserve *sometimes* gives a short cycle (well shorter than 28 days)

Other than that I would stick with the DF, it can't hurt

Sounds like the perfect info to go armed with to the GP! I'd really suggest taking the report, and all of your charts and showing it to them and asking for a referral to a FS.
