Spotting and falling temp :(

I am trying to stay positive, but I'm worried about my temp - it fell almost a whole degree today.  I'm at 11dpo, BFN this morning, and spotting now too.  The spotting is actually okay - I've spotted at this point on all 3 of my pregnancies.  But the temperature makes me worry my progesterone level is taking a nose-dive.

My doctor wasn't very open to my taking progesterone last time I asked, or even to sending me for a progesterone test.  Is this something you would get pushy about?  I'd love to hear your thoughts!

    I never supplemented with Progesterone until IVF...but I'm surprised that with your past m/c that your dr. wasn't open to you supplementing. And if your LP is only 11 days that it seems that adding progesterone might help with that issue too. I would definitely be pushy with your next cycle...I'm not an expert but my guess is that it could help.  good luck and keep us posted!

    Ditto PPs, unless he shows you research indicating why it shouldn't be taken, I'd go for it.  (Any chance you have access to a research library so you can find evidence supporting progesterone use in your situation?)

    I'm sorry it's not looking good. But, I agree with PP. It couldn't hurt to supplement. Good luck! Keep us posted!
