Lp gain is Different in some ranks?

I feel like the MMR system is messed up. Or its just how it is. I use to be plat 4 last week. I recently climbed form plat 4 to plat 1 in 3 days. During that climb i would gain 20-21 Lp per win and lose 16-17 Lp. Once i got to Plat 1 it just went downhill. I would win 17-19 LP and lose 20-21. Why is that?

Its been pissing me off lately especially failing diamond promos today. Can't give up yet though. If anyone can tell me why its like this now.

LP gain is based on your MMR.

If you MMR is higher than your current rank, you'll gain more than you lose. If your MMR is lower, you'll lose more than you gain. Based on your example, the system believes that your skill level is around Plat2. To prove it wrong, you need to go on a decent winstreak against players who have MMRs higher than yours.
