Thanks for your message, sorry to hear you are having such a hard time with progesterone too. Frustrating isn't it!
With your question about do I usually bleed before AF....sometimes but not always.
1st - I bled 4 days before beta, using crinone gel
2nd - no bleeding BFP then m/c, 200g prog
3rd - no bleeding BFP then m/c, 200g prog
4th - I started bleeding before m/c, on 400g prog
5th - FET no bleeding before beta, on 400g prog, BFN
6th - bleeding 5dp5dt, on 400g prog, BFN
While having a beta before my 2nd m/c they saw a dip in prog and I thought that may have been what caused the baby to m/c. After d&c they did tests on baby and found it had Trisomy 16 which showed that it was not the prog but rather it was not viable pregnancy which made me feel a bit better. (but I have always wondered if it was an underlying factor?)
I have had all the m/c tests, after my 2nd m/c I asked for them to check that there weren't other things happening that we hadn't thought about. All came back clear my husband and I, so besides our initial diagnosis PCOS and low sperm count with motility problems there is nothing else causing problems. Especially as nearly 4 years ago we conceived our daughter naturally there is evidence that we can get pregnant!!
But maybe there are other things to ask now with regards to this prog problem? I had heard about the 'up the bum' option but like you hadn't really thought about doing it. I will be interested to see what your FS says on Sat and I am can't wait for mine on Mon I have so many questions to ask. I will let you know how I go too. Good luck....all the best. (Sorry for essay too!)
