Has anyone used B6 to help lengthen their luteal phase?
So from what I've been reading, it seems to me that I had an early miscarriage. I got two faint positives on Dollar Tree tests, but then AF came. I have read that LP's that are 10 days or less cannot sustain a pregnancy and will result in early miscarriage. Mine has been 10 days since my first postpartum cycle. So A website I checked out says that vitamin B6 taken for the whole month can help to lengthen your LP.....has anyone else heard of this or tried it? And if so, did it work?

I did take B6 for awhile but then I read that Vitex combined with Red Raspberry is actually more effective in lengthening the LP. You can buy them both at Vitamin Shoppe.

Thanks!
How do you take them? Are they pills?

I was going to take B6 this cycle (even went out and bought it); but then I read online that you need to take a B vitamin complex for it to be effective? (which isn't what I bought); plus I noticed my prenatals have 15mg of B6 so I decided to not take the extra. If I have another short LP this cycle I will ask the doctor what I should do.

Re: Has anyone used B6 to help lengthen their luteal phase?
yes, i did. i took a b-complex vitamin. after doing research it seems that the rest of the vitamins in the b-complex pill help your body absorb the b-6 better. it definitely works. i had an LP anywhere from 8-10 days and i have gotten pregnant on it twice.

My LP was 7-8 days. I started taking a B complex supplement and got a BFP that month, although it ended in m/c

Re: Has anyone used B6 to help lengthen their luteal phase?
I just got back from my local health foods shop and the lady there seemed really knowledgable. She told me I could either go with a B complex or Vitex, but she said she would go with Vitex because in her experience it is more effective. So I will start taking that once AF is gone! Even if I don't get a BFP this month, I am at least hoping for a longer LP!
Thanks ladies for all of your help!
