DH and I are TTC & I've been temping since December. My cycles have all been 28-29 days since October when I stopped BFing. Last night I was browsing different sites and read about a short luteal phase being less than 10 days (after hunting around more, I saw some said less than 12). Since December, I've O'ed on CD 18 or 19. This means my LT is 9-10 days. Apparently, this often leads to the uterine lining shedding before implantation can occur. There are some sites that say evidence is showing that this is a myth. I saw some info about taking more B6 &/or cream (can't remember the name) to lengthen the LP, but obviously I'd like to talk with my dr. first. I called today but she's out of the office until next week. unfortunately, today is CD 19. I know we have only been TTC for a few months, but I'm pretty upset about this info.
I looked at old charts from DD and I was O'ing on CD 15-16. The month I got KU it was CD 13.
Anyone have experience with this? Did you take anything to try to lengthen your LT? Did it work? Anyone get KU w/ a short LP? Just curious.

Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.
