My question is if increased P and more food intake is related with the corpus luteum developement?
For instance, does this need KCAL increase in diet?
Could it be that you might need less KCAL if you are not pregnant, or not intending to be, versus being pregnant?
So would in that case a diet contain less KCAL as we are not looking for optimal corpus luteum developement.
Thanks
