Am I right about this?

I was thinking that I would take an HPT this weekend on either friday (11dpo) or saturday(12dpo) just for fun.  But only 1 of the days then would not test again until Wed(16dpo) or Thursday(17dpo).  Thurs is when FF said should be my test date.  BUT I got thinking about it, now tell me if I am wrong................ EVERYONE'****eal phase is different.  Me for example, I have a long luteal phase which lasts on an average of 16 days.  IF you have a SHORT luteal phase your chances of getting a +HPT earlier is more likely than if you have a LONG luteal phase. For example, if my luteal phase is only 12 days, then it would be ok to test at 10 or 11DPO and would most likely get a +hpt.  So if my luteal phase is on an average 16 days, I should really wait until ohhhh 14-16DPO BECAUSE it's closer to when AF is to show.
Am I right about this?  Julia

I had a short LP, 11 days.  I got my BFP on day 10.  What your saying makes sense, in theory, but who knows!  The two week wait sucks!  Good luck.

Edit=typo, I should really read before I hit submit :)

No, actually you are not right.  A person'****eal phase length has absolutely no bearing on when they will get a positive HPT.  I person with a 15 day luteal could get one at 10 DPO, while someone with a 10 day luteal phase may not get one until 13 DPO.  It all has to do with when the embryo implants and how long it takes HCG to it your urine.  FF just puts your test day way out because they want to save you money.  You are just as likely to get a 11 DPO positive as someone with a short luteal phase.

Good luck.
