LUFS (Luteinized Unruptured Follicle Syndrome)
This condition is where a woman's body produces all the signs of ovulation without actually releasing an egg.
Luteal Phase Defect
This condition occurs when the time from ovulation to menstruation is less than 10 days. This condition will not support a pregnancy. Some of the causes are low progesterone, high prolactin and insufficient uterine lining.
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
This is a condition in which the ovaries are masked with many small cysts, which prevents ovulation.
