Question

Should I be concerned with an OD of 18 or 19?

I'm probably freaking out over nothing but I am curious. I am 4-5 DPO and waiting to take a pregnancy test next week.

However, I am curious now about my cycle. I have had 4 cycles since coming off of BCPs and I have ovulated during them (as confirmed in Nov by DR). However, I seem to ovulate between CD 17-19. I usually get AF on CD 28-30. Is this a problem?

I guess we'll see what happens next week but I looked it up online and now I'm getting concerned. I think I did conceive pretty late with DD in 2011. I did the math and I think she was conceived on a OD CD19 as well. But, I'm now 4 years older. I'm probably just freaking out over nothing but I'm wondering if this is rare.

A normal LP phase (or the time from when you ovulate and the time AF arrives) should be longer than 11 days- this being because it takes time for the egg to travel through the tubes and implant itself in the uterus. I had this problem (a shorter LP phase) and I got my blood work done per my doctors request and turns out I had low levels of progesterone in my body (which can cause a shoter LP phase and shorter cycles) and they put me on Letrizol (Femera) which is a progesterone driven ovary stimulant (like Cholomid) in hopes of lengthening my cycle.. Might be something to mention to your doctor. If you have questions just let me know, but it's better to private message me :)
