Can Clomid lengthen your luteal phase?

Clomid users, did it make yours longer?

LauraM.... my 1st round was last month and I O'ed on CD18(normally CD15) and I got AF 14dpo on the dot. But 1 good thing is that it made my AF shorter. I usually have AF for 5 days and this time it was for 3 days so I cant complain about that.

I think that it takes a month or 2 to get ur body use to taking it and thats why ur cycle might be different.

Katie do you know what your LP was before Clomid?

My luteal phase has remained steady at 13 days both before and during Clomid.

I read somewhere that our luteal phases rarely change and remain steady throughout life.

Clomid works on the hormones that lead up to ovulation and I think it has little affect after.

Thanks! I hope that is the case for me. Mine has always been 12 days with AF showing the morning of 13DPO and so far nothing. I know Clomid can lengthen LPs for people with a short luteal phase but mine is normal, so I hope its not playing games with me! LOL

LauraM.. my LP from the time I O to the time I get AF is about 11-13 days long.

With this month that I used Clomid my LP was 14 days long so I assume that it did make it longer since I O'ed later too.

Hope this helps!

Bump for Dr. Q = )

it doesn't lengthen LP

So, theres a good possibility that the Clomid worked for me?
