Cycle with luteal phase deficiency

Updated on: Author: Medically reviewed by: Prof. Dr. med. Alexander

What are the characteristics of cycles with luteal phase deficiency?

Luteal phase deficiency occurs when the second phase of the menstrual cycle (luteal phase) is shortened and lasts less than 10 days. Particularly short cycles can therefore be a sign of luteal phase deficiency. According to studies, about 9% of all cycles are affected*.

Are you wondering if your cycle shows signs of luteal phase deficiency? With the clinically tested OvulaRing**, you can better understand your cycle and detect early signs of luteal phase deficiency. On this page, we’ll show you how OvulaRing works and how it actively supports you during treatment.

Causes, Symptoms & Accurate diagnosis: You can find detailed information on how luteal phase deficiency develops, how to recognize it, and how to reliably diagnose a progesterone deficiency on our dedicated page: Luteal insufficiency & Recognizing progesterone deficiency.

OvulaRing is more than just a period tracker

OvulaRing is suitable for all types of menstrual cycles

Is your cycle very short, very long, or irregular? Thanks to its continuous monitoring, OvulaRing can be used for all cycle types and has been validated in three medical studies for a wide variety of cycle types.

OvulaRing is not a basal body temperature thermometer

The patented OvulaRing method does not determine fertile days based on basal body temperature. OvulaRing measures and analyzes core body temperature 288 times a day, thereby identifying individual fertility patterns that allow for precise insights into the menstrual cycle.

OvulaRing is convenient and you can't feel it

OvulaRing is easy to use and you won’t even notice it’s there. While wearing OvulaRing, you can continue to exercise, go to the sauna, have sex, and enjoy life. The automatic internal monitoring provides accurate results, no matter what your daily routine looks like.

OvulaRing tracks your cycle and provides real-time results

OvulaRing can tell you exactly whether you’re ovulating and whether your cycles are healthy. Once OvulaRing has learned your individual cycle patterns, the analysis software also calculates your daily likelihood of conception.

OvulaRing was developed by gynecologists and clinically tested

OvulaRing is based on 40 years of scientific research by renowned gynecologists and reproductive medicine specialists. The accuracy of OvulaRing has been proven in independent medical studies.

OvulaRing is free of hormones and side effects

OvulaRing works entirely without hormones and is free of plasticizers and side effects. Its high level of comfort and the material’s good tolerability have been confirmed in several medical studies.
