You are Here: BBT Chart Gallery > Short follicular Phase? and 4 dpo or 5, what do you think???

This post relates to: baby CD DH LP pregnant RE u/s

Don't like what you see on this chart?

What is a short follicular phase (like, how short is short?)? And what does that mean for TTC? I started OPKs on CD11, and the very first one was the darkest, so dark it was almost (ALMOST!) as dark as the control line, you could only tell it wasn't in certain lighting, then all the others were obviously NOT positive. Could I have o'd on CD 11 instead of 12? I'm following the PotBelly method this time, told DH last night that I decided to be pregnant this time :) Baby dust baby dust!!!

I will tell you what my RE told me: I O CD 9 or 10 usually and my eggs are thus not "mature enough". Yours at CD 13 should be perfectly fine! I will be taking CLomid to lengthen my entire cycle and to delay O til approx. CD 16. I am supposed to go CD 13 for an u/s and get a shot to make me O when follies are perfect. If you continually O earlier than CD 12, (I have only seen this one chart, so IDK) you may want to ask your dr if he or she thinks that is the reason you can't conceive. I will mention my sis Oed CD 8 and has 4 kids. So yeah...just depends on YOU. Your Dr can do an u/s and blood work to determine if your eggs are mature enough, the size of the follies, etc. Until then, CD 13 is plenty late enough!!! A short LP would concern me more. Hope this is your month!!!
