The luteal phase is the time between ovulation and your period- normal is 10-14 days- when your body produces progesterone to support a possible embryo and if it goes to 17 days without a period you’re probably pregnant! The progesterone raises your waking body temperature so if you keep track of your temps they will increase after ovulation and maybe go up a bit higher if you get pregnant.
