Dr. Connerth -

Thank you sooo much for your response to my questions. I am going to ask a few more, if you don't mind. :) Would it be possible to have a luteal phase defect if your lp is usually 13 to 14 days and post ovulation temps are usually at least 1/2 to 1 degree higher than pre-O temps? I thought those were "symptoms" of luteal phase defect, but I don't have those problems. Would post-O bleeding, starting from about 2 to 5 days past O and lasting from 2 to 7 days indicate a lpd?

Thank you again for answering me earlier, and any more information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Mary
