luteal phase defect ladies

just wondering if i'm the only one who has this issue.  a couple of months ago, RE told me that my uterine tissue doesn't convert the way it should after i ovulate.  i'm currently on crinone in the mornings, and progesterone suppositories at night in the hopes to correct the issue.  anyone else have the same issues?

    Maybe... I have the symptoms of a LPD - spotting between ovulation and AF and my LP is about 9-10 days. I had an endometrial biopsy that tested CD 18 when the biopsy was taken on CD 21. That's another sign of LPD, but not good enough for a diagnosis. This is my second month on Clomid, and I haven't spotted with the Clomid. I don't get to see an RE until April 30th so I'm hoping to get some more info. then.

    I don't have the official diagnosis, but my ob/gyn said I have "low progesterone" in my LP (8.3 at 7dpo). I think I have this -- I spot from 7dpo to AF, and my LP is 12ish days long. She prescribed me progesterone supps, but I haven't used them yet as I'm just waiting to get into the RE (next week!). Good luck!

    I hope you don't mind me answering.  I don't have an official diagnosis either, but when I took my charts to the RE my short LP jumped out at her immediately.  It was about 8-10 days.  I was O'ing on my own, but she put me on Clomid to help the LP.  The first month, it made me O earlier in my cycle but I still had a very short LP...and consequently a short cycle.  The second time around she upped the Clomid to 100 mg and added progesterone (100mg) immediately following O.  It worked!

    Good luck.

    Are you still at Cooper?  They said I also have LPD.  They told me I had the same problem last cycle.  My lining was not showing the HH pattern they like to see after ovulation.  I was taking endometrin three times a day so they added prometrium before bedtime to my current cycle.  This cycle they said my lining did show the HH pattern they look for after ovulation.
