Timing of implantation related to cycle length?

[secrethope]

Hi all, just avoiding work, so was pondering something...

If you have shorter cycles are you more likely to implant earlier than those who have longer cycles? Or would it be completely unrelated?

I know that people quote 6-11dpo as when implantation is likely to occur so I was just curious really. AF tends to come 12dpo for me, so was just curious if that would impact implantation....

I have funny tummy pain atm, I know its not ovulation cos that happened 2 days ago, and I know it can't be anything else as its far too early...most likely trapped wind!!!

I think it's unrelated which is why they say if you have a luteal phase less than about 10 day's you should get checked out.

I think it's unrelated too

When implantation occurs probably depends in things like the length of the fallopian tubes, size of the uterus, speed the egg travels at, density of lining, etc.

I don't think having a 12 day luteal phase would impact you negatively - i think mine is the same.

yeah, 12's well within normal from what i've read
