I've heard it might have something to do with low progesterone levels??
I ovulated on CD15 and now I'm on CD21..
I am TTC and I don't think I got it this time around:(
But anyway,any idea what the drop in temps might be from??

If it goes back up tomorrow then it's normal. About 10% of all non-pregnant women see these dips 6-10 days past ovulation, and about 20% of all pregnant women have these dips. The only time I had a dip like this, was the month I conceived. Looking at the above stats you see it happens more in pregnant women.
If your temp stays down tomorrow and your period comes, then that is called a luteal phase defect (a luteal phase less than 10 days) and progesterone can be prescribed to lengthen it so you can conceive.

If it goes back up tomorrow then it is nothing to worry about. I had this problem only mine would do it a couple of times in one cycle. My doctor diagnosed me with a luteal phase defect and I am taking Clomid to try to correct that. So it could be due to a lack of progesterone if it is a repeated thing throughout one cycle. Also you could actually be ovulating now. If you did for sure ovulate cd 15 it could be just a second surge of estrogen that some women get or it could be implantation (but it might be a little early for that). It also could just be a fluke this cycle if it has never happened before and doesn't happen after this. Or you could be pregnant. Charting allows us to have so much information we wouldn't have otherwise but it can also cause some confusion. Best of luck ttc!!! And I hope this is your month!!!

The link isn't working yet once you're unique which you ovulated on a similar time as you probably did the dip is possibly an implantation dip. I had this with my first being pregnant. It became into as quickly as very subtle in spite of the fact that it certainly became into as quickly as there at 10dpo. My temps additionally save around ninety 8.40 5+ F on a similar time as i became into as quickly as newly pregnant. So in case you do no longer see your temp dip as quickly as extra at 14dpo (indicating AF) then you could additionally want to test. good luck.

Are you sure you ovulated on CD15? This would help if I could look at your chart. It could be that you didn't ovulate on CD15 and that you are about to ovulate. Other than that it could be many things and I wouldn't worry.
