With difficulty, we can probably get CD11 and 14. I probably don't want to waste a femara cycle on that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1892530 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 20:34:47 +0000 LAZB 1892530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't lose hope! I always spot before af, so when I started spitting at 8dpo, I figured I wasn't pregnant. Cut to 12dpo, af still hadn't started, so I trsted, and bfp! I'm now 19 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1892497 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 20:00:05 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1892497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FliegepilzHut: Thanks! Spotting has been VERY light. DH will be home tomorrow night. If AF isn't clearly here and my temp stays up, I will test either tomorrow night or the following morning with a better test. I think AF will come full blast before then, but I am hoping for the best. I appreciate your support and prayers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1892488 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 19:50:27 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1892488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: I'm keeping my fingers crossed... :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1892411 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 18:36:05 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1892411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FliegepilzHut: I haven't temped every month, but enough to know what my body normally does. My temp usually drops before AF starts. This is the first cycle on femara, so I don't know what that will do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1892349 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 17:42:53 +0000 FliegepilzHut 1892349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: It's not over until it's over. Remind me...do you usually temp...and, if so, do you normally have any bleeding/spotting before your temps drop? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1892322 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 17:21:18 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1892322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My temp was up this morning, but I think I am starting to spot. :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1891216 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 08:42:14 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 1891216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: have been keeping my fingers crossed for you &amp; checking for your update! :happy: :goodluck: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890988 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 22:45:19 +0000 yellowbird 1890988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: such a hard decision.

And my temps were higher too. It messed with my head! Hopefully though this it for you! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890888 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 20:09:56 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1890888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbird: I have some better quality tests (the same kind my doctor's office uses). I am trying to weigh knowing vs. being a mess at work tomorrow, and I have a super busy day. DH is out of town tomorrow night and will be back Wednesday. I don't want to test without him, and I don't know whether to wait or bite the bullet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890825 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 19:11:22 +0000 yellowbird 1890825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: do you have any frers? Wondfos are great because they are cheap but I didn't get a true positive until the day if my missed period whereas on a frer I had a bfp at 10dpo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890824 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 19:08:00 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1890824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You guys are getting my hopes up! I know it is possible that it cna lengthen LP, but I'm so hoping that this is it. The last few days have been a roller coaster with wondering what is going on. If AF stays away and my temp is up again tomorrow, I will probably test again. The downside is a BFN leaves me a mess, and I don't want that before I have to go to work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890807 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 18:50:33 +0000 BSB 1890807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, mine stayed the same. 14 days as always. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890778 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 18:16:37 +0000 PurplePumps 1890778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It shortened mine the first cycle (12 days) and was normal the second (14 days) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890777 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 18:12:39 +0000 ShootingStar 1890777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, my LP is 14 days like clockwork on or off of Femara.</p> <p>ETA: but since your typical LP is on the short side at 11 days it may have lengthened it. I'm sure that's not what you want to hear but that's good! An LP that's too short or borderline can interfere with getting and staying pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890776 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 18:11:34 +0000 Shutterbug 1890776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and no. My normal LP is 10-11 days, and on Femara or Clomid it was 14-15 days, but I was also on progesterone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-femara-affect-your-luteal-phase#post-1890729 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 16:50:23 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1890729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am 13 DPO on my first femara cycle. Normal LP is 11 days. My temp is up (though haven't slept well the past few days), but BFN on a wondfo yesterday. My hopes are up, but I am concerned that maybe femara just lengthened my LP with no BFP. </p> [attach=1305/14/nd1m18.400x600.image.jpg]
