Adding Maca gold and B6 to lengthen luteal phase

My last cycle was noticeably shorter than usual, and considering my late miscarriage was June 28th, I figured it would. I had a pretty standard flow, my usual 4 days, but while observing my cycle, I found my luteal phase was quite short.

I have been doing a lot of research on maca gold and its success with conceiving, especially with women who have/had hormone issues such as I. And also read how adding a B6 vitamin can help increase the length of your luteal phase.

I am now on CD8 and have already noticed I am producing more CM than I have ever had made this early, so I am hoping with these added supplements, some change is being made.

I typically ovulate on CD18, and with only a 9 day luteal phase, a fertilized egg has barely a chance to implant! So even if I can't lengthen it, I am hoping to trigger ovulation a few days earlier!

I am doing charting as well, and will be adding OPK on CD12 to ensure I am in fact in my fertile week. Since my CM was observed quite low last cycle, I have also purchased Pre-Seed, and plan on using it during "fertile week", however, with my current CM observations, (including my husbands), I don't think I will need it.

Any ladies use Maca to conceive, or take B6 to lengthen luteal phase? Any success??
