TTC After a Loss

Low Progesterone with ?

I KNEW IT! 

I was at a 6.2 and they said the doctor likes to see a 15 at 7DPO.

The nurse said I wasn't ovulating?  That doesn't make sense to me because I have had a pregnancy twice this year.  Would I have had 2 days of positive OPKs last week if I wasn't ovulating?  I understand that you can have a surge and then not ovulate, but would I get a surge?

So, I will start supplements 1-2 days after my next OPK.

If I get a BFP (which, at this point, now I am not expecting) I will get progesterone shots immediately.

My stupid, stupid body.

Re: Low Progesterone with ?

  • over 5 indicates ovulation... idk why nurses give out info as if they are doctors

  • We're in the same boat.

    And yep, over 5 indicates ovulation. My clinic even went so far as to say my P4 draw of 3 was an ovulatory cycle (I was monitored and on Clomid, so we knew for sure).

    Sorry about your numbers, but FX that you'll get a BFP soon. I did after we started supplements.

  • That level could still mean you o'ed... I guess the only way to know is to see if you get a BFP.  5 is still pretty low, could you get more b/w done to verify it hasn't gone up? Don't lose hope yet just bc of a stupid nurse. :)

     Were you on Clomid or Femara? I know on my mediciated cycles they want it to be over 15. Im not sure what they look for on non-medicated.

    No, that is another thing.  The nurse didn't even have my chart out.  She asked if I was on Clomid.  I'm all, "um, no".  I think they look for a 10 non-medicated.
