Guest guest Posted May 8, 2006 Report Posted May 8, 2006 Dear all, I'm treating a female Pt for haemorrhoids, which have vastly improved, though worsening around day 7 of her cycle persists. My question: she is convinced her ovulation always occurs on day 7 (has spinnable mucous around that day) and that after that it's 21 days till her period, not 14. I didn't think the luteal phase was variable to that degree. Is it possible?? What would induce the corpus luteum to survive that long? could low prolactin levels be responsible? (my Lapraz notes tell me that prolactin peak on day 20 inhibits LHRH, one of the factors leading to disappearance of corpus luteum?) Many thanks!
