Low progesterone,no ovulation and irregular periods

[louisaL]

Is anyone else the same as me

What would you do if you were me?

I had the same kind of problems and I would recommend asking the doctor for Progesterone to bring on a new cycle and Clomid to try to bring about a timed ovulation. That is the regimen I was given and it was a whole lot better than waiting 6 months for AF.

Good luck, Hon.

I had the same problem and my Dr. prescribed Clomid and Prometrium (a progesterone supplement). Hope everything gets worked out soon. xx

have alook at this and see if it applies to you. Has your GP done any more tests??

usually progesterone islow because you havent ovulated. Once clomid is given and you start ovulating, the low progesterone will fix itself.

thanks for the further advice my old doc did say the next step for me would be the fertility clinic but the new doc whose taken over is 'anti fat' so i'm too scared to ask if i can go. plus i dont think the clinic would even do anything cause of my weight.

i know most of the prob is my weight its just doing something about it

In my PCT smokers and people with a BMI over 30 are turned away for assisted conception treatment as these factors do reduce the chances.

Hey hun... I have exactly the same problems as you...

FOR ME: CLOMID 50mg, 100mg & 150mg had no effect at all after 10 cycles, i am also permanently on progesterone as it keeps my cycle a regular 28/30 days now...And in the end i gained another +/- 20 pounds from the Clomid..

BUT: I have in the past 2 months been on a new MEDICATION that has helped me to lose as of today 33 pounds in 2 months... since losing the first 17 pounds i got AF 3 days early making me 27/28 days... I have been sleeping beter, i have been getting CM, and around O time i am sensitive... Now i don't know if i O yet... But i have given myself and my body the time to Lose the total 77 pounds... as unfortunately they can not find a single thing wrong with me not even PCOS......

I was refered to a FS, and when i phoned for an appointment i asked the nurse.. *Does the doctor help overweight patients*, i was advised to lose most of my access weight than the doctor won't even need to see me....

I never trully understood what she meant... So i know the struggle u are facing hun.. it is hard to get going but the Medication i was given has trully helped me alot... My self esteem, hormones, even my sex life has changed....

I was also informed * in some studies it has shown that overweight women struggle the most to conceive, and the chances of m/c is higher also stillbirths* Now in my case it is so true, as my Gyni said he can get me that but he has informed me i will m/c....

I have been TTC for 1 year, and LTTC now for 1 year.. and finally decided it can only be my weight.....

PM me and i will give u the info about the medication.....

I hope i have not offended anyone, but in my experience so far with being overweight and having unexplained infertility... In the end my only opsticale is the weight....
