Amber, Prometrium is a pregnancy-safe progesterone supplement. I have shorter cycles. Though sometimes my LP seems just fine, other cycles it doesn't. Hopefully this will keep my body from spotting or starting my period too early for a fertilized egg to really get a chance to implant. I'm also taking B6 (for about three weeks now) and I know that can help with short LPs too.
I'm so glad to hear your supplements are working and giving you peace of mind! That makes all the difference.
Haha Amber I'm glad you're having fun with the bd-ing this cycle!
Second, I am also taking b6 and I think my LP has increased from 9 days back in April to about 11-12 days in August. So I think it works!
Afm: 11 dpo today, bfn, and I think I see some spotting... Oh well.
That gives me hope, AnneBurg!
I'm sorry to hear about your BFN, though I know you're not really out until AF shows. If the BFN sticks, I hope next cycle brings some good news!
Second.time- Yes, I did read somewhere that B6 is supposed to help with LP defects, but I think that there are other things that you could/can be doing as well that might help, too. Vitex might be one to help with that, bc it's an all around menstrual health and balance herb. The herbs were helping quite a bit, but yesterday I put in my temp and it told me I was already 4dpo!!! Which was completely unexpected, and I'm not entirely sure that's it's right (it's also dashed so FF isn't sure either, lol) I never got a peak on my monitors of a + wondfo, so I'm thinking it's wrong, and that I'm about to O, and not actually 4dpo, which I'm not going to lie, putting in a temp and it telling me I'm 4dpo was really nice, bc it was like it just erased those 4 grueling days of waiting to test, but I'm pretty sure it's wrong. Would be nice though, bc we had really great timing on our BDing around that time. This morning, when I put my temp in it moved it from CD12 to CD13 as O day, so FF is still trying to figure out what's going on. Does it go off you previous cycles and maybe bc I added the herbs and all it's throwing it off and I should take some of my crazier cycle's out of the mix?
AnneBurg- Sorry that AF got you, that truly blows. And, yes, it was fun, and would of been awesome if that was my actual O date, bc it was stress free as I didn't think I was anywhere near Oing, so that stuff was the last thing in my mind, but if you look at my chart it's doing some weird some stuff ATM, so I'm not sure what to think now.lol.
