How can I lengthen my Luteal Phase?

Question

Last month my cycle was 32 days and I had not gotten a positive opk as of CD21. Therefore my luteal phase couldn’t have been more than 10 days. This month I just got my first positive opk on CD19 and (since I usually have 28 days cycles) I’m expected to get my period in 10 days again on nov5. Is there something I can do to give my body more time?

Answer

Well, no. Your body ovulates when it ovulates. You can still get pregnant with a shorter luteal phase. Implantation can be anywhere from 6-12 DPO.

Answer

My luteal is 10 days too!

Answer

10 days is fine for luteal phase. If you want to lengthen it speak to a doctor or OB about progesterone.

Answer

After TTC for 9 months, my doctor put me on progesterone to lengthen my luteal phase (mine had also been around 10-11 days long before). The first month it helped extend it by about just a day, so she added Clomid into the mix too. I also started going to acupuncture to help. I got pregnant on my second month of doing all three.

Answer

Also is a luteal phase of 10 days bad??
