New to bbt

juliehopkinsja

Hello! I recently started charting my bbt and I have a few questions. Me and my fianc had unprotected sex on CD6 and I'm sure that I probably did not ovulate until CD1617 from my chart but I am new to charting and can't really read much into it. I really think there is a possibility of me having low progesterone. And having such long cycles 32 days kind of scares me as well. Does anyone have experience with these things? I can post my chart but I don't know how to exactly.

32 days is a perfectly normal cycle length. What makes you think you might have low progesterone? If this is your first cycle charting I wouldn't be too worried about anything just yet. Give it a few more cycles so you have more data before you start stressing yourself out.

Thanks for the reply! I guess I just have a really hard time with pms in terms of low progesterone. I'm exhausted after ovulation. The last couple of days have been sleeping for 13 hours. Anytime I've been on birth control with estrogen and no progesterone like the monophasic type of BC instead of triphasic. it has been a complete disaster. I have actually never had success with BC. Im not on BC and havent been for yeara. My coverline is 97.8 my temps past ovulation were 98.01 to 97.9 range maxing out at 98.09. I had a miscarriage last summer. I am not too terribly worried, trying not to be,about it. Im just looking for some ideas.

Great advice.  OP keep charting and don't borrow trouble.  A mc == a Progesterone deficiency.  GL!
