Post ovulation temps are lower than normal?

[mindgames77]

Hi ladies,

Sorry I've been posting so many chart related threads! I'm just not sure about this cycle!
My temps ARE higher than pre ovulation temps, they're just not as high as they normally are. They're just....off. Does anyone see anything in my chart that might explain it?

Hello mindgames77. From what I understand lower temps post ovulation means that the amount of progesterone you are producing from the corpus luteum isn't as high as it had been in previous months, possibly meaning the egg you released isn't as strong. Doesn't mean you're out though. The most important thing is that your temps don't drop past 12 - 13dpo indicating that the corpus luteum is still leaving because you're pregnant! Good luck x x
