How does the LUTEAL PHASE (LF) affect us and how can Verra Complex help you if your LF is too short?
▪️What does the term LF mean?
The menstrual cycle is counted from the 1st day when a woman bleeds to the last day before the next bleeding.
1st phase = cycle until ovulation
2nd phase = luteal phase
▪️How long does "healthy" LF last?
A healthy woman should have a LF duration of 12-16 days.
+/- 12 days, women with a shorter menstrual cycle have it
a woman with a long menstrual cycle should have at least 13 days of LF
▪️What can cause too short/long LF?
Women produce 2 important hormones: estrogen & progesterone
Today, women tend to have an excess of estrogen. One of the reasons may be a higher supply of E in food (soy, meat,...). And the others? Lack of group B vitamins, stress, exhaustion.
If LF is abbreviated, it can have a negative effect on conception, abortions, etc. This is where the Verra Complex, which contains the entire B-Complex, can support you.
If the LF is long, you are most likely in a different state❤️.
▪️How do you know you have the second phase of your menstrual cycle? So LF?
In order for you to LF for sure, it needs to know when your ovulation phase ends. You will find out:
▪️ ovulation tests
▪️ at the gynecologist
▪️observing uterine secretions
▪️symptothermal method (the most accurate)
