My husband and I are trying to conceive and I am afraid I have a leutal phase defect. I am charting my BBT and everything looks fine. I start taking my temp on the first day of my red/heavy period (I usually have about 3-5 days of brown spotting first). I ovulated at about day 13 and my temp went up two days later to prove it. It has stayed up and looked like a triphasic pattern dipping on 5DPO and then shooting up and remaining high. The problem is that at 6DPO I began with light pink jelly-like spotting. It continued for several days getting slightly heavier and changing colour to light brown. I have had this now for 7 days (very light and not considered my period. All the time, my BBT remained high. I am due for my period in about 2-3 days. I was hoping this was implantation bleeding followed by decidual bleeding, but I am having slight cramps too. Is it possible to have a progesterone problem even though my temps stay high? Is the bleeding a sign that I could have a leutal phase defect? Should I test for pregnancy? Is it possible I could be having a very early miscarraige?
I have had spotting before my period for several years now and my doctor has tested me with endimetrial biopsy (came out normal-slightly uneven), and tested my blood (which showed slightly elevated prolactin levels--25?? Could this be a problem? We really want to have a baby and have been trying for only two months. Any answer you could give would be much appreciated!

In speaking to my Dr. (fertility specialist) about this problem, he said it is not neccesarily a problem, especially if the spotting occurs after day 10 post ovulation. (Please note that I too had been tested for endometriosis and all the things that can be associated w/ spotting prior to period and all negative results) As I have only been trying for 4 months, he suggested continuing to try for 6 months prior to medication. He did suggest I could try clomid for this problem (he prefers this to progesterine). I might try to clomid as I am ready to conceive!! Good luck everyone...just sharing knowledge.
