This is actually my first post - great to meet you all. I'm just starting TTC and have had a pretty rough go with my cycles for the past 5 years (45-60 days/months without any at all) so in an effort to get educated about any possible problems, I had CD 3 testing done. I just got my results back this morning (I don't meet with my doctor until next week) and after some research I am pretty concerned about my really high progesterone levels. I've been reading this forum for quite a long time and you ladies are EXPERTS so I wanted to see if anyone could shed some light!
Thanks in advance
AMH: 2.8 ng/ml
Progesterone: 10 ng/ml (from what I have read progesterone during the follicular phase should be less than 1.5 ng/ml)
I do not know what your levels mean either, but I have learned not to jump to too many conclusions and worries based off DR. Google research. I have learned this more than once. Good luck and let us know what the doc says!

Ah sorry I don't know what high progesterone means at that stage either! Does it have something to do with DOR, pre-menopausal or something? Sorry it is probably nothing a little medical TLC can't fix!
