Short luteal phase

[JM1984]

Hi girls, just wondering for those of you who have had/ have a short LP - what are you/ have you done about it and what worked??? And what didn't work??

I have a 14month old son who we had no trouble conceiving - I then went on the pill and stopped that on Xmas day and started charting my cycles straight away. My first cycle I o'd but only had an LP of 7 days. The second cycle I took vitex and vitamin b6 and I ended up ovulating a day later but also having a one day longer LP (8days) and now I'm on cycle 3... I'm continuing the vitex and b6. Im not sure whether I should go see a naturopath or fertility specialist now or wait out and chart 1 more cycle... I know that the LP will correct itself in time but I'm impatient!!!

Would love to hear about anyone elses experiences with a short LP...

Hi JM1984. I've taken EPO, vitex and B6 and it seems to have done the trick for me after three months (fx). I have read about some people doing accupuncture and raspberry leave but I don't know about that so can't tell you if it is any good. I know my post doesn't really give you any new ideas...sorry. If I hear of anything good in my readings I'll bring it back to you. Lots of health food stores have trained naturopaths there so maybe see if one in your local area can give you some free tips, that's where I was told about vitex and B6 together.
