Well as you can probably imagine my appointment today went GREAT!!!! my OB gave me the great news that I no longer have the cyst on my right ovary!!! This means, I don´t have to take BCP this next month, and I will be able to FINALLY start TTC as soon as I get my period, which should be here any time now!!!! We also discussed about me being worried about having a shortish luteal phase, mostly 11 days, he says while 11 days is not considered a luteal phase defect, he really prefers seeing a 12-14 day luteal phase…so since I´ve already had a miscarriage we´ll be trying to stay on the safe side and I´ll be receiving DAILY progesterone shots each cycle after ovulation…..So each cycle I´ll start prog. after ovulation, and 14 days later have a pregnancy test done, if it´s negative , I´ll stop the progesterone and start a new cycle…But when I do get a positive I´ll have to continue the daily injected progeterone for the first 3months of pregnacy…DH has agreed to learn , since he´ll be the one giving me the progesterone shots……So I guess I´ll be SORE as hell! but then again I´ll be more relaxed and I know at the end it will be worth the pain!!!!! so, I´m just waiting for AF to show, and baby making time!!!!!!! Wish me luck!!!! anyone here has had progesterone problems or short luteal phases???

AHHH!! It just erased my comment. I have about a 10-11 day luteal phase. I use Creighton Model Method for TTC and diagnosing my IF. THey say that there are five different types of luteal phase defects! My OB said there wasn’t such a thing as a luteal phase defect. Sounds like you have a good OB. My mother had a luteal phase defect as well, not sure if it runs in the family or not?
Bring on the pain! We will take it! I bet you have never been this excited to get your period!!! Thanks for stopping by!
