Luteal phase
WHAT: The luteal phase begins after ovulation and ends with the start of menstruation. During the luteal phase, the follicle becomes a corpus luteum. The corpus luteum produces estrogen and large amounts of progesterone which prepare the endometrium (the lining of the uterus) for implantation of a fertilized egg. If conception doesn’t occur, the corpus luteum disintegrates causing the endometrium to shed and a new menstrual cycle begins. The luteal phase lasts about 14 days and is remarkably consistent from woman to woman.

Luteal phase?

Can I lengthen my luteal phase if I’ve already ovulated? Realized last month it was only 9 days long. Now, I’m already 8dpo.

Luteal phase

So my cycle was only 25 days this month which is weird because I have always had a 28/30 cycle (depending on days in month) but I had a period from the 3rd to the 9th but ovulation came strong on the 14th! My Luteal is 14 days but cycle was 25? Is that good or shouldni be concerned??

Luteal phase

So I started spotting very light on Friday (11 dpo) and it continued on and off throughout the weekend getting slightly heavier each day (still very light though). Today is Monday and af has arrived her normal heavy self with red blood. My question is did I have a 10 or 13 day luteal phase?? Aka does your luteal phase end if you start spotting? Seeing my doctor on Wednesday but wanted to pick your brains. Thanks!!

Finally got my positive opk this morning and am having stingy cramps..I'm assuming I'm currently ovulating. I'm cd19 today with an average 29 day cycle. Is this enough time to get a sticky baby?? Any ladies with experience with a shorter LP?

If you spot before your actual period, does that mean your luteal phase  is short? And is that a problem when ttc?
