What is a good LP length?

stefjeff84 · April 2009

I know everyone is different, and I can't remember exactly what TCOYF said but I was wondering. I just finished my first cycle charting, and I had a 10 day LP. I know it can be between 10-16 or so, but what is best? What are some ways to make it longer if it is too short? TIA

Most sources say that a LP of 10 days or more is adequate, though some say 12 or more (because of late implantation).

Progesterone supplements (thru your doctor) or vitamin B6, I believe, are ways to lengthen it.

There is no "best" and everyone is different. Girls with 10-day LPs can and do get KU just as much as those with 16. As long as its at least 10 days, you're fine.

Thanks Jenny & congrats again on your BFP!

My doctor said PNVs help with LP length. And since someone else mentioned B6, which is in my PNV, I guess that's why.

Aw, thank you!

It's still sinking in. :-)

I had an average of 10-11 day LP. The month before I got my BFP, it went down to 9 days.
