Hi ladies,
I'm wondering if anyone can help me with this as I'm not finding anyone in the same situation and am really confused...
me 33, DH 37 and TTC#1 for 6 months. Not long I know! Except that every month I know that our bds have been timed right for O as I'm very regular and track this by CM. After 3 months of actively trying decided to start OPK and BBT. Realised that I might have a short LPD - but I just need to clarify something...
Cycle 31/32 days
O on CD 17
CD 26 very light flow starts and lasts 4-6 days
CD 31/32 heavy period flow
My question is: Do I have a luteal phase of 9 days or longer?
From all my research I see that spotting is counted as being part of your luteal phase. However I get slightly more than spotting - but it really is a very very light flow - so I'm wondering if it could be classified as 'spotting'. When i say light flow I mean I would have to use a panty liner and 1 would last the whole day (I change it more, but 1 would suffice!).
I started taking B6 vitamin 2 days ago hoping that it will lengthen LP this cycle, however I'm still hoping that it is longer than 9 days. I think this is why TTC hasn't worked so far!
Anybody have any advice?? Or can tell me if the very light flow would be classified as part of my LP or not??
Any help really appreciated ladies, I'm going mad obsessing... I literally think about nothing else these days - I never realised this journey would be so consuming!
