Progesterone Question

[ElleJay]

Hi all, I got a letter from my gyno with the result of my CD21 BT.

'Your progesterone level measures 24. This confirms ovulation, is not adequate but has occured. Please make an earlier appt to see me'

Any help?

Sorry, hun, I dont know with out looking up all my charts and I dont have access to them just atm- sorry
But perhaps you are Oing but your hormones arent measuring up to what they should be iykwim. Progesterone can assist to support a preg so if thats low a preg can fail. Thats about all I think I recall off the top of my head. But sending you a mountain of

Not sure about the level, I thought anything between 9 and 35 indicated ovulation.. Are you temp charting? Do you know how long your luteal phase is? Progesterone is what helps the uterus support the emby once it implants.. From what I understand though, if this is the problem it may just be a case of progesterone pessaries. Hopefully it is something that simple to fix..

Hi DD

I thought that was a good level???

Maybe he is referring to something else??

Good luck!

[blessedatlast]

Yes I thought it was ok too. I can't remember what my level was but my FS said a similar thing to DD Dr.. She said the level indicates I ovulated but my eggs weren't mature enough. Maybe thats what the Dr means??

When are you able to see your Dr DarkDreamer?

See, I thought that it was a good level too - Cause I got told that anything over 10 means you O'ed and anything above 20 is good.

I need to call my gyno on Monday morning, so I won't know when I can get in till then.

BAL - I've got my chart in my sig. My LP is usually 14 days without fail

I did an OPK this morning, just to see what it came up with and I've basically got a positive OPK, the test line is as dark (if not a bit darker) than the control line - Now I've run out of HPTs, and was told (and read somewhere) that they COULD be used as a HPT. So now I'm super confused, and feeling a little strange. If I am pg, I don't have any symptoms, except for the temp increases.

I got a pos OPK before I test with my HPT Liz! How exciting!! Maybe he wants to just organise a blood test for pregnancy? Any chance you can get a HPT today?
