Progesterone levels

[alison22]

Okay ladies I have finished my fourth round of clomid,
50mg I had my progesterone level tested and it was 9. I don't really know whether that's good or bad but I'm waiting to hear back from the dr on What we will be starting this time around.

I'm just looking to see what's happened to some of you while I. Clomid with progesterone levels..?

It honestly depends on WHERE you were in your cycle when you had your progesterone levels tested. If it was cd21, then those are quite low. I think the number is in the mid 30s to sustain a pregnancy.

Your doctor should be the one talking to you about this, most likely they may add promethium to your regimen (progesterone supplementation) to start one like.. 6 dpo and stop around 12 dpo if you don't get a bfp so your period can come.

Do you have short luteal phases?

My dr had been on vacation and there isn't much time for him to decide what to do due to having to start the next script Friday for clomid. They tested on cd23. I typically have a 13 day luteal phase.

9 isn't terrible but it's a little low. Mine was 9 after 50mg of clomid at cd21 and they said they did see people get pregnant with that level but they would like it higher than 15 for an induced ovulation, but 9 would have been normal for a natural ovulation. My level after 200mg clomid and 2 trigger shots was 15.7

I'm now 5w4d pregnant, and it was completely spontaneous, had no idea until 5 days ago, got my progesterone tested at 5w0d and it was low. It was 9.7, should be greater than 20 at my current gestation so they put me on supplements. I'm hoping this keeps me pregnant!!

Don't give up hope yet, I'm sorry your doctor hasn't given you the info you need. Is there not a nurse there you can talk to?

They have upped my dosage to 100mg of clomid and want to test my progesterone level again after I ovulate this cycle. Hopefully this is it...but again not getting my hopes up.
