What is Luteal Phase Defect?

Luteal phase defect is a disruption in the normal female menstrual cycle. The defect occurs when the body does not produce enough of the hormone progesterone. This results in a delay in the development of the lining of uterus (endometrium).

The luteal phase is the time between ovulation and the start of the next menstrual cycle.

Alternative Names:

Inadequate luteal phase
