Well I went for my annual today. She didn't even look at my charts that I brought her. She just said that she didn't really like to rely on temping or opks for oing. ***? She seems to think I might o earlier in my cycle and my egg isn't mature enough for conception. She said that it's very rare that your lp is short. WTH? Where did she come from? She said to try for a few more months and if nothing, then go see an RE to have them run some tests. So, I'm gonna keep trying for a few months with my b6 and maybe some progesterone cream and see what happens! I'm so frustrated! I just want to give up, but I can't

Dh went to the doctor because he's been having a pain in his side. They think his spleen might be enlarged. They will do a CT scan tomorrow to see what's going on. Please keep us in your prayers that nothing is wrong!

I'll try to update tomorrow

Hmmm I am sorry she treated you like that. I think most doctors don't know much about charting so they blow it off. If it were me I would call back tomorrow and ask for a referral to a RE. Keep bugging them until they get sick of you

Ummm, okay...that wasn't exactly what I was hoping to hear from you Michelle

I agree with Bobbie, I would bug them for a referral to a RE...NOW, especially since she doesn't seem overly concerned with helping you!!

Please KUP on Scotty! I hope everything is okay!

My doctor isn't totally crazy about charting either, but it sounds like your Dr puts absolutely no stock in it and I don't think that's right.

I have seen SO MANY women here on JM who have luteal phases that are shorter than 14 days, it's hardly rare. I am willing to be that you ovulate at a normal time and your LP is just a tad short.
I don't know if your luteal phase is the reason you aren't getting pregnant, since it's not super short, but at the same time, it can't hurt to try and lengthen it. I've heard good things about B6 and progesterone cream.

Don't give up sweetie, I know it's so hard. But it will be so worth it.

I hope you get answers soon, maybe from an RE or another doc. And of course, I hope Scotty is okay too. KUP.

I'm so sorry you were treated that way and I agree with the other ladies. I have a shorter LP, only 12 days. I thought about the B6 but never stuck with it long enough to see if it would extend it.

Keeping you and dh in my heart and prayers hun.

I'm sorry your Doctor was so rude to you, it's not fair, not to say unprofessional. I agree with bobbie, get a referral and don't stop until you get what you need. KUP
I hope everything turn ok with your dh, good, will be thinking about you guys.

Sorry about your dr, my dr said the same thing about charting and OPK's. Hopefully you can get into and see an RE and they will be better help to you. Hope your DH is okay too
