Hello TTTC!
My name's Erica, I'm 26 and DH is 29. We have been NTNP since December '14 and I have been charting since April '15. After 5 cycles in a row with late ovulation on CD 19-21 and LPs ranging from 6-10 days (8 average) I went to my OB with concerns about my progesterone levels. She drew blood to check for progesterone on what ended up being 2dpo and 6dpo (determined via FF) and both were below the threshold for ovulation. She immediately recommended Clomid for anovulation.
I went to an RE for a second opinion where she looked at my charts and followed me with daily ultrasounds which determined that I do ovulate (CD20). I was diagnosed with Luteal phase defect (LPD). Treatment is daily Crinone (progesterone gel) in the morning, which is beyond gross but I'm still going. So far she thinks that my chances of conceiving are pretty good with LPD if the progesterone works, but if I have no BFP after the holidays she would like to discuss moving on to medicated cycles.
A little about me: I'm a research assistant currently studying Traumatic brain injury (TBI). I'm a huge Harry Potter nerd, I love video games, reading, drawing, and sleeping.
I hope to get to know all of you better and offer support and advice when I can.
