Trouble TTC

Provera raising BBT?

My RE put me on Provera to try and trigger AF so we can get this long cycle over with and *hopefully* try Clomid/injections next cycle (final decision won't be made until after my hsg...which won't happen until after AF...).  Anyway, I have been taking it at night for 6 days.  The morning after my first dose when I took my temp it had jumped up .8 degrees.  My temps have been elevated ever since, and now my chart says it thinks I ovulated (I use Fertility Friend so all the hard work of figuring out ovulation is done for me).  It seems like too much of a coincidence to me though, and I am wondering if taking Provera could be raising my temps and tricking Fertility Friend into thinking I ovulated? 
TTC since June, 2011 with anovulatory PCOS, 1 blocked tube, and mild MFI
3rd cycles clomid + Ovidrel = BFN
4th cycles letrozole/Ovidrel + IUI = BFN
IVF #1 = BFP! Twins due 2/5/2014

Re: Provera raising BBT?

  • Yes, Provera rasises your BBT.  I wouldn't bother temping when on progesterone.
    DX: Anovulation
    TX: IUI #1-4 = BFN + 1 c/p
    IUI #5: Clomid 100mg + Bravelle + Trigger + B2B IUIs + 800mg Progesterone = BFP!
    Beta #1 (14dpiui): 460 Beta #2 (16dpiui): 998 Beta #3 (23dpiui): 21,832 Beta #4 (29dpiui): 129,771

  • Yes, progesterone is the hormone that raises your temperature post-O ,and results in the temp rise.

    You most likely did not ovulate.
