  So I heard back from my RE. She agrees with me that I should supplement progesterone and prescribed it for this cycle. I just wish they had listened to me when I voiced concerns about low progesterone two months ago when I started actively ttc and taking Letrozole, and I wish I would have pushed the issue harder ... If they had listened or I had been more insistent, perhaps we wouldn't have lost this one :'( Hopefully now that I have the progesterone this cycle will work and DH and I won't have to go through this again....

  So sorry @amos1417 and @genipher1231. I'm glad to hear there's hopefully a better plan in place with your RE for next time. :'(

  I've been MIA over the Christmas weekend but I wanted to say congratulations to all the BFPs and I'm so sorry for all those with a negative result. Both my husband and I were a little surprised at how disappointed we were this cycle; for some reason we had high hopes this month. It was so hard to see my husband sad, as he is usually the one cheering *me* up. (I tell him it's only natural to be sad and I hope he doesn't feel like he has to always put on a brave face!)

  
  Anyway, we are taking a month or two off to get some other tests done, go on a trip, and just generally try to get in a better eating & exercising routine before going back to medication. I wish all of you the very best in the meantime!

  Me: 33, PCOS with anovulation
  DH: 36, No known issues
  TTC since 11/2014
  1000mg Metformin daily
  
  Oct-Dec 2015: Letrozole 5mg, Ovidrel, TI = BFN x 2
  Feb-May 2016: Letrozole 5mg, Ovidrel, TI, Prometrium = BFN x 3
  August 2016: Clomid 100mg no response, Letrozole 5mg, Ovidrel, TI, Prometrium = BFN
