How to regulate luteal insufficiency? Three points to know

Luteal insufficiency has an impact on female fertility. Women need sufficient progesterone. The luteal phase is calculated from the time when the female's body temperature drops after ovulation. If luteal insufficiency occurs, it needs to be adjusted.

The time for taking progesterone supplementation therapy to treat infertility is generally recommended to start taking the drug 2 to 3 days after ovulation.
