hi ladies!
im ttc after a mmc in july, have been pregnant 3 times in total, 2 m/c and 1 DD. Until now have never had trouble conceiving and had never even HEARD of the luteal phase!! but now after using opks for the 1st time the last 3 months have discoved my luteal phase is 11 days. have no idea if it has always been this short,and if it is even a problem but would love to hear some reassuring stories from ladies the same as me!

TTC IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!

I got pregnant with an 11 day luteal phase so you're fine. Drs like to see anything over 10, and 12-14 is ideal, but 11 days isn't bad at all. Sadly my pregnancy ended in a MC, but it had nothing to do with the 11 day luteal phase. GL xx

thanks lomelly, and im so sorry to hear about your loss. x x are you ttc again or waiting a while? ive been worried that my m/c 's have been due to my short lp.

I also worried about mine only being about 11 days, but from all the reading I did it appears anything over 10 days is ok? Like Lomely said, 12 and up is probably a little more ideal, but not necessary.

I had similar concerns, and even pushed my Dr to get my progesterone tested alongside my HCG when I was prego. My progesterone levels were always fine, so your LP probably isn't a cause for concern. But if you're really worried, have them check your progesterone 7 DPO. I was worried and had my Dr do that, and it turns out my progesterone was fine. Some people just work a bit differently. Will your Dr give you a few simple blood tests?
Thank you, and I'm sorry you had to go through it too! I hope when you TTC again you'll get a sticky bean in no time We are TTC immediately, but I had to do a month of BC to regulate hormones. Once this pack is done (new years eve) we're going back to TTC!
