This poll was inspired by Porkpie's thread on cycle lengths and ov days. Thought I'd make a poll to make it easy to compare the results for the length of luteal phase (that's the time from ovulation until AF)

Im not sure if this is correct but sum1 posted yesterday that ur luteual phase is always the same but the one part that changes is the 1s day of to ovulation. Tho hopefully some1 else clarifies that as im not sure

magicvw

Yes Porkpie that's supposed to be true. But I think it can vary by the odd day here and there, whereas the the first phase can be quite dramatically different.

The bit im confussed about is why then u can be a few days late and not be pregnant?????????? Does that just mean that u ovulated later?

magicvw

Very often yes! I think that's probably the main reason - I reckon the majority of women (not those on bnb tho!) don't know when they ovulate, so if AF is late they don't know that it could be just due to late ovulation.
