Can progesterone levels indicate pregnancy?

[rustyswife828]

Hi girls! I was on clomid this cycle and I've been having pretty good pregnancy symptoms. From cramps, bloating, sore and sensitive nipples (even taking a shower is painful) achy breasts that lasts a minute or two, very low back pain, nausea and a queasy stomach, sweet cravings..

So yesterday I went to have my blood drawn to check my progesterone levels. Can a high number indicate pregnancy?

Anyone?

Usually progesterone is high if pregnant as your body will produce more, but high progesterone doesn't mean pregnancy and low doesn't mean you aren't.

What pp said is true. Clomid raises the levels anyway so it's hard to tell. Hang in there and take a pregnancy test when your provider recommended ❤
