progesterone blood level

My OBGYN ran this lab on me at my initial visit with him to discuss our difficulty TTC.

The secretary called to say it was normal and I ovulated.  WTH does this mean?  Is this just saying I ovulated this month or I do always? I'm confused.

    Assuming your P4 was drawn on or around 7DPO it will tell you what you did that cycle. Each cycle is its own monster, so what you do one month will not tell you what you did the previous month or the month after.

     

     This exactly... it only tells you for that month if you ovulated.  It can be  normal for women to have an occasional month where they do not. It has to be drawn around 7DPO to be accurate.  A great way to see if you are ovulating without getting blood work done every month is by temping.
