My LP tends to be 10-12 days with spotting/brown CM 1-3 days before AF starts. My progesterone level at 5DPO was normal and even the new RE said the spotting/brown CM isn't a concern. I was "certain" I was having a progesterone issue. Unfortunately, whats normal or not seems to vary from person to person... :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-normal-chart-rule-out-progesterone-deficiency#post-1550216 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 09:15:51 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1550216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unfortunately, no. I had a normal 14 day LP with no spotting but still had low P. My naturopath saw that my chart was a little slow to rise after O and tested me because of that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-normal-chart-rule-out-progesterone-deficiency#post-1550109 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 08:37:45 +0000 Snowdrop 1550109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sorry I had to take pics, couldn't find anything clearer online :happy: </p> [attach=4306/14/n3nxwb.450x600.image.jpeg] [attach=4306/14/n3nxwc.600x450.image_1.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-normal-chart-rule-out-progesterone-deficiency#post-1549856 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 05:09:25 +0000 Snowdrop 1549856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No it certainly does not rule out a progesterone deficiency. There are several different types. I will try and find a link. You can actually have a normal length luteal phase and still have a problem. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-normal-chart-rule-out-progesterone-deficiency#post-1549811 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 01:07:37 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 1549811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: I'm not 100% sure, but from what I've read your LP should be no less than 12 days. I could be wrong!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-a-normal-chart-rule-out-progesterone-deficiency#post-1549526 Sun, 06 Apr 2014 19:24:30 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 1549526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are in our 13th cycle TTC, though we have had 2-3 cycles where timing was an issue. I have CD3 labs which were all normal. I consistently O CD15 (rarely CD14). My LP ranges 10-13 days, usually 11-12. I have no spotting until AF comes. My temps sometimes drop 10 or 11DPO, but rarely go under the coverline until 11 or 12DPO. I am in the process of changing insurance, so I can't get progesterone labs for a bit. How likely is a progesterone deficiency? Does a 11-12 day LP without spotting mean that it is fine/very unlikely? </p>
