Do I have a short luteal phase?

Question

Hi ladies, I’ve been TTC for 5 cycles with no luck so far. I have been tracking my periods and starting to find consistency around 23-24 days per cycle. Does this mean I may have a short luteal phase?? 
I have experienced pregnancy symptoms for 2 cycles followed by a heavy period.
Any advise would be great?

Answer

Not necessarily... your LP is the time between O and your period. If you ovulate early at around day 10 then that would give you 13 day LP which is long enough. Anything below 10 days is considered short. 
You need to track your ovulation either by OPKs or BBT to determine when it is. If you do find it’s on the shorter side, I recommend vitex. I took this as I ovulated on CD17 and had a short LP. It bought my ovulation forwards and lengthened my LP so got my BFP the first cycle of taking it. If your LP isn’t short, don’t take it or it can have adverse effects. 
Also, 5 months might seem like a long time, but healthy couples can take a year to conceive.
