Success after IF

Progestrone check 4 days past 3 dt

Hello girls!

I wrote this over at TTC, but thought that maybe someone here had some experience with this.

I got a call from my blood work this morning. Estrogen was great, but progestrone was 35.4, so they are upping my PIO shots to 2cc in the evening and 1.5 cc in the morning. I am a bit worried about this. BETA is next week. Anyone have an issue with lower progestrone in the 2WW. Doctor is looking for 40.

    I have never had my progesterone tested until my betas... so I guess I am not sure?  40?  Really?  That seems really high...  I did have my progesterone tested at my beta and it was lower than they wanted and they up'ed my PIO... but they have always wanted it at 20 or above at all my betas.

     Good luck!

  • Thank you so much for taking to the time write back! I appreciate it,

  • RE had me on progestrone lozenges 3 times a day following my IUI. Then I had blood draws every week through week 12 to check betas and progestrone levels.  I am currently being weened off and take my last dose Thursday.  I can't remember what my progestrone # was though.

  • I'm not a dr. but they watched my progesterone like a hawk w/ my first preg and then this one... that number seems high to me.

    My progesterone was 34 a week after my ET.  Our RE also wanted to see me at 40 so she doubled my PIO from 1cc to 2cc.  I stayed at 2cc for 13 weeks and everything worked out great!!

     Good luck!!
