Short leutal phase and vitamin b6

[Melly41]

Hi girls, has anyone had experience of a short leutal phase and using vitamin b6? I have calculated my leutal phase to be 10 days which is on the cusp of me not being able to conceive. In fact some GP's consider less than 13 days a leutal phase defect! I've read online that vitamin b6 can help to lengthen the leutal phase but was wondering if anyone has used this?

Don't know about b6 but my luteal phase has lengthened since I lost weight....hormone balance is probably a factor in some way. I've recently started eating seaweed as iodine is meant to help with balancing hormones.

..Went and googled it and turns out there are lots of things that could help including vitamin C and antioxidents... http://www.conceiveeasy.com/get-pregnant/8-ways-to-correct-luteal-phase-defect-naturally/

Thanks sunflower, I will google that link. Ive ordered some b6 to try but will be happy to try anything as worried I might not conceive due to it being 10 days!

Thanks Lennie, it sounds like from what other women have said that vit b6 does increase the LP......my LP is likely to be 10 days and from what one of the other girls said earlier your LP doesn't change, just your af comes a bit later if you ovulate later....this might explain why I am not conceiving this time around....amongst others factors like my age! I think I am going to give it a go...no harm in taking vit b6 from what I've read. Thanks x

I conceived with a 10 day LP, I tried taking B6 etc for a couple of months which just made me spot prior to AF.. I actually conceived a couple months later when I'd stopped taking anything!

I read that Vitamin C was more effective.. if you do take B6 you need to take a B-vit complex not just B6.

Be wary of what you take though.. all these different herbs and pills may affect your cycle but not always in a positive way for you personally.. you may be hindering your chances without even knowing it!

Good luck xx

Oh - and be careful taking Vitamin A, check you're not taking too much (plus what you get naturally through food)! Check the RDA xx

Thanks girls. I think I might have calculated my leutal phase incorrectly. Did online charting this morning for my this cycle and last cycle and it looks like my leutal phase might be 11 or 12 days. I will see what happens next cycle and then may try vitamins if leutal phase looks like it is 10 as only properly been charting for one cycle! Thanks for advice though x
