Day 21 test results....

[havelar]

Hey ladies, I just heard back from my doc and she said my day 21 progesterone level was 4.6, she said that I did ovulate with that number. I also took clomid 50mg days 3-7 this month. I thought my numbers would have been higher. Do any of you ladies have thoughts on this? Is there still a chance for pregnancy with these numbers?

Hi hun i had my bloods taken and mine was 4 and i was told i hadnt ovulated
But i wasnt on Clomid or anything! I thought that people on Clomid their Progesterone was supposed to be higher??! But then i have only read this on Dr Google

Good luck

Last cycle I took 150mg clomid on cd3-7. My cd 21 bloodwork was 4.something. But I knew I had a positive opk on cd18 and made them redo my bloodwork on cd24 and it was 9.something!! I did ovulate it was just later than normal! I had to argue with the nurse and doc because they kept saying it wouldn't make a difference but obviously it did. So don't lose hope.

I was told anything under 5 meant I didn't ovulate.

Oooh so maybe i did Ovulate if my Progesterone was 4??

If your bloodwork wasn't done at the correct time it's possible. My doctor insisted it didn't matter my bloodwork was done so soon after ovulation. But I proved them wrong. It felt good.

Good luck!!

4 is low. You should go for your DAY21 test 7 days after you confirm ovulation, whether that be with temping or opk's. Don't think you have to stick to the CD21 rule, you'll do yourself a favour listening to your own body.

Thanks ladies. I got a positive opk on September 10th which would have been cycle day 13 for me, so maybe the day 21 test was just done to late. I am trying not to lose hope and I'm praying that I will get a bfp this month.

I think that you still have a chance this month, but if you do get your BFP, get your progesterone checked again. I think that a level of 4 something would be very low to sustain a pregnancy. I had mine checked at 19dpo during my last pregnancy and it was only 6.8, so I went on progesterone supplements. Unfortunately I still miscarried (due to a blighted ovum), but I am hoping to get my progesterone checked sooner if I get my BFP this month!

I am currently taking Prometrium 200mg days 16-26. Thats another reason I was shocked it was so low. In my last pregnancy I took the prometrium through the first 10 weeks, the doc will have me do the same when I get pregnant again.
