Did you know that if you have long cycles, you may have an increased risk of miscarriage, even if you conceive during your most fertile days? Women who are TTC and who typically ovulate after cycle day 21 should work toward shorter cycles to increase their chances for a healthy pregnancy.
Every woman has the occasional long cycle--ovulation may be delayed due to stress, travel, or other unusual circumstances. This is part of your body's amazing design: conception isn't a good idea if you might be in danger. Your body "knows" that pregnancy is a time when you should be stable and at peace.
However, if you typically ovulate later than cycle day 21, you will increase your chances for a healthy pregnancy if you take some time to work on developing more regular cycles before TTC. Achieving more regular cycles is easier said than done. SCBP is developing a health-promotion program for couples planning or trying to conceive. We can help you develop a plan to help encourage more regular cycles. Contact us if you are interested in finding out more!
