Progesterone???

All month I have been doing testing with my RE he wants me to come in tomorrow to test for another Progesterone test. It seems like that is a common issue for me. I've been looking it up and it seems like people take pills for it. But I'm not sure. Just wondering if anyone else has low numbers for their progesterone and what your RE suggestions were?

    I take progesterone suppositories starting 3 days after an IUI. I take them in the morning and then again at night. Typically 7 days after my IUI I go in to test my progesterone levels. Anything below 15 is low in my understanding. Before I started them, I was at 15. Now I take them automatically after the IUI and last 2 times I was at 29... Hope this helps.

    I also use progesterone suppositories twice a day. They're easy to insert, but make a mess. Stock up on panty liners!

    I have the same problem. I spot before my periods. Still waiting on cd3 testing to see how low my numbers are. I've heard there are pills, creams and/or injections. Wish I could be more help. Good luck!!

    I have low progesterone and LPD. I take progesterone suppositories after ovulation to 14dpo now and it's done wonders for my luteal phase but I don't know exactly what my numbers look like now.
