I just got AF right now. So, I just had a 19 day cycle with a 10 day luteal phase.  This is my first month charting.  A few months ago this happened as well. Is this something I should be concerned about? I go for an annual on Dec. 13th, so I will def bring it up.  I knew I was out this cycle because I O'd before we even got to try.

    10 days is generally ok, anything under 10 days is a luteal phase defect. You should be fine. Good luck!

    19 day cycle is really short! But your 10 day LP seems ok, mine is 11. Love your wedding flowers, looks exactly like mine, we have great taste! :)

    How do you know this happened a few months ago if you just started charting? It is OK to have a shorter cycle as long as your LP is about the same each month. DId you just come off of hormonal BC?

    I know this is a long shot, but are you sure it is AF (and not just spotting)?  What days did you have sex this cycle?

    I am assuming I had a short luteal cycle a few months ago because I had been marking the calendar when I had ovulation cramps and when I got my period.  In July I had a 20 day cycle.  I came off of BCP in April.

    PP I am sure it is AF because I started spotting yesterday,  A little while ago it was bright red when I was going to the bathroom.

    That is quite the short cycle, but I don't think it's anything to be concerned about.  If your LP is shorter over the next few cycles, then maybe talk to your doctor.  At this point, though, I think you're fine.

    Short cycles just mean more opportunities :)  I'm sure a lot of people would kill for a 20 day cycle!

    A 10 day LP has been the norm for me the past few cycles. Of course I'm not pg yet either...so can't say if it's ok or not, but I hope it is! I'm overdue for my annual, so I'm planning to call my Dr after this cycle (which should end next weekend).
