Hubby and I have been TTC #2 for about 9 months. Daughter is 29 mos. old and still actively breastfeeding. I've had some luteal phase spotting and no bfps yet so I requested a progesterone test.
Got it checked yesterday at CD 22 and it's 10.51. Does anyone have any input if this is good? (Doctor's office is closed today)
 
I'm not sure what that means but I am on progesterone. Doc never checked my levels- I just told her about my short lp and she prescribed it.
 
Thats a normal level , shows you did ovulate, progesterone should be over 10 on natural cycle and over 15 on a medicated cycle. in pregnancy it should be 20 or higher and oftentimes once HCG starts being produced progesterone go's much higher. if progesterone remains low then progesterone supplements are needed till 12 weeks to prevent miscarriage. spotting in 2ww could indicate your progesterone too low so the lining begins to break down too early. also progesterone can be lower in some 2ww
verses others it all depends on the quality of the egg , a poor egg leaves a smaller corpus luteum behind which will not produce as much progesterone as a larger corpus luteum would. https://www.justmommies.com/articles/corpus-luteum.shtml
