Forgive me if this has been covered already.  This late/early, I'm just not finding it possible to figure out a way to phrase the search right to week out all of the extraneous results.

 

We just started TTC in November, and I'm currently in my 2nd charted cycle (3rd if you could the one where I used OPKs exclusively).  It's starting to look like I'm possibly dealing with a LPD (luteal phase defect), with them being 10 and 8 days for the last 2 cycles.  The 10 day cycle, I still had the Paragard IUD in with no supplementation.  The 8 day cycle, no IUD and I was taking Vitex daily until ovulation.  This cycle (still awaiting ovulation), I'm taking just about everything... Vitex, Vit B6, Red Raspberry, and EPO.  

 

If I have another LP <10 days, confirmed with charting, I'll want to get in touch with my doctor and see if he's willing to do tests to confirm a LPD without waiting for the typical 1 year of TTC.

 

I guess that's my question... how long should I wait/how many charted short LPs should I have before getting in touch with him?
