LOS ANGELES — A new study shows the length of a menstrual cycle affects the ability to get pregnant.
"We found that fertility was highest and the risk of miscarriage was lowest following cycles of 30 to 31 days," said Dr. Small.
Which means if you menstruate every 28 days, you have less chance of getting pregnant. That may be because you don't ovulate for as long.
Dr. Hensel reported that minor changes in fertility drug dosage to make the period 30 or 31 days could correct that problem for women like Kelli.
This of course is not true for every woman but if you're having trouble getting pregnant and you have very short or long periods ask your specialist if an adjustment can help you.
