I have an appointment tomorrow with my ob/gyn and want to talk intelligently with her about my charts, but have no idea how to pronounce 'luteal phase.' Is it loo-teel? Or loo-tle? Other??
Thanks ladies!

Really? I definitely hear three syllables there. I think he says "loo-tee-uhl".
MW says that it should be 3 syllables - https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/luteal

I say it like this. So does my RE and all her staff.
2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!
TTC #2 - 6/12 surgery #3, FET #1 & 1.2 = BFN, 12/2012 FET #2 = BFP! DD is 1.5 yrs!
Surprise! 12/16/14 BFP, loss #2 12/31/14
I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
Like loot. Lootal.
I was thinking the same thing, I hear 3.
I hear three as well. But then again my ears have been clogged for the last week and a half so maybe I'm hearing it wrong?
This.
Here's the pronunciation from m-w.com.
And dictionary.com gives it 3 syllables.

Too funny.
This is what my doctor told me.
I specifically asked my doctor this question when I went a couple of weeks ago.
**TTC since 10/2009** **BFP 4/15/12- Dx Molar Pregnancy- Surgery 5/15/12 & 5/22/12** **BFP 1/23/14- 1st Beta (1/24/14) 171 2nd Beta (1/28/14) 860**
THIS is exactly how I say it (how the lady in the recording says it).
Maybe you need to just call it the 2 week window? Not much in the way of debating that one lol!
I hear three syllables, too!

I don't know if it's right, but that's what I do too!
This is how I say it too.
Too funny! Thanks ladies! I think I'll go with loo-tee-ul.
This, and my RE has said it to me a number of times this way, so I'm assuming it's correct.
Yes, and my OB said that I was correct.
