Cancellation due to high progesterone...?

Hi All, Got a call from my doctors office today saying my cycle is being cancelled because my progesterone is high and is rising when it shouldn't be. The nurse I talked to didn't really have an explaination. And they said they will watch it the next cycle more closely and have more testing throughout the process. Has this happened to anyone? Do you know why that happened and why they won't move forward? TIA!

IVF #7 - 2017 September, antagonist, 5 follicles, 6 eggs, 3 immature, 3 injected, 1 fertilized, stopped growing day 3
If your progesterone is rising too quickly, too soon, it can impact implantation and makes for not ideal environment. It's happened to me which is why my fresh transfer after IVF retrieval was cancelled and my RE also watched it closely during IUIs. As crappy as it felt having it canceled, I would rather wait and have more ideal conditions for success.
