Infertility

What should 2dpo P4 levels be?

I missed the call from the RE's office (stupid work!) and on the vm message the nurse didn't tell me if my P4 level means I ovulated or not (I went in for a check because I have not had a temp shift or O pain and was thinking we might need to do another IUI [chart]).

My 2dpo (presumed 2dpo, definitely 2dpIUI) P4 level is 7.6. Does this mean I ovulated? All I can find on google are 7dpo P4 levels to indicate ovulation.

BTW, I did not start my 3x/daily prometrium supplements until after the blood was drawn.

TIA for the help!

    Your progesterone levels won't tell you whether you've ovulated until about a week later.  7.6 is a good level, but doesn't indicate ovulation quite yet. However, I bet it will go up. 

    Your doctor's office may have some minimal threshold they like to see, but usually on a medicated cycle they like to see 10-15 at 7DPO.

    GL!

  • Thanks for the response. I plan to call the RE's office tomorrow to get the details, especially since the blood work today was specifically ordered to confirm O. I wish they'd just done an u/s so I'd know for sure!
