CD6 blood results are in!

[SpudsMama]

LH 6.6 iu/l
FSH 6.3 iu/l
Oestradiol <200 pmol/l
Progesterone 1.0 nmol/l

The GP says that progesterone was on the low side, but he didn't tell me how bad it was, or what I can do to help... does anyone here have any tips for low prog?

Thanks!

np hun its wot us BnB ladies r 4. as 4 what u said on the other thread i wouldnt worry too much. if u were just after gettin ur bloods done 4 piece of mind then just leave it that. if it due to you seing if u will need sum extra help or have other fertility concerns go bak to ur gp + say so lol. it might help going forward if u know what the policy in ur pct is in regards to treatment for fertility incase u need to try + get a referral

Thanks for the advice, you're great at this stuff My plan is to leave it this cycle and just see what happens with the new donor. If all goes well with him but still get a BFN, I'll go back to my GP and discuss further tests in October xx

lol thanks i stil feel like complete novice. dat definitely seems like a plan although if u havent said anything if u do go back to ur gp dont mention about ur change of donor as he may restart ur ttc period in terms of the guidelines to u locally. as in mine i have 2 b consistently trying 4 36 months with a single individual, so i never told them we changed donors and may have to again stil so they dont restart my countdown after all in my eyes i am ttc with 1 person my wife lol just not in the traditional sense

Oh yeah definitely. As far as my GP knows I've been TTC with the same person the entire time! xx
