Causes of Luteal Phase Defect in TCM

Causes of Luteal Phase Defect
The luteal phase is usually about 12 to14 days long. During this time, your ovaries produce a hormone called progesterone. This hormone tells the lining of the uterus, called the endometrium, to grow. If you become pregnant, the developing baby attaches to this thickened lining. If you do not become pregnant, the lining eventually sheds, and you have a period. A luteal phase defect can occur if:
-- The lining of the uterus does not properly respond to the progesterone.
-- Your ovaries do not release enough progesterone.

Luteal phase defect has been linked to many health conditions, including:
Obesity
Thyroid disorders
Anorexia
Endometriosis
Polycystic ovarian syndrome
Extreme amounts of exercise
Hyperprolactinemia (excess of a hormone that's responsible for milk production in breasts)
