Luteal Phase and B6

Casey

Hi all!

I had my Mirena IUD removed on April 22 after having an IUD for a total of 8 years. I did not get a period while I had an IUD.

My first cycle without the IUD was 29 days long and my second was 33. I ovulated on CD20 in my first cycle and CD24 on my second. I noticed that both cycles only had 9 day Luteal phases. I did research and discovered that short LPs make getting pregnant difficult.

I started taking vitamin b6 100mg starting cd1 because I heard it can help lengthen your LP but would love to read some insight or success stories! This is only our second cycle trying but I am so anxious that it may take us longer. I’m currently only on CD9.
