Can women with luteal phase defect get pregnant?

Patient's question:

Amenorrhea 2006

Doctor's answer:

Fertilization is a complex physiological process that requires the following conditions: the ovary must release normal eggs, semen must contain normally active sperm, eggs and sperm must meet and combine in the fallopian tubes to form a zygote and be transported into the uterine cavity, and the endometrium must be suitable for zygote implantation. If any of these conditions are abnormal, fertilization can be obstructed, leading to infertility. Can you get pregnant with luteal phase deficiency? Luteal phase deficiency includes luteal phase defect and luteal phase shortening, which can cause poor development of the secretory phase endometrium, making it difficult for the zygote to implant, or leading to early miscarriage even if implantation occurs. Treatment for luteal phase deficiency should be tailored to different underlying causes.
Advice: If you are indeed diagnosed with luteal phase deficiency, you need to supplement with progesterone, as pregnancy is prone to miscarriage otherwise. The doctor will prescribe medication based on your test results. Both partners should undergo preconception health checks at the hospital to identify and treat any abnormalities in a timely manner. Wishing you health and happiness!
