Progesterone Test Results- need help

[OnErth&InHvn]

7dpo progesterone was 4.3

The lab ranges are:
2.6+ for luteal phase

Google says it needs to be 5+.

So do i go by lab range or google?

Do you know the units it was measured in? That can cause quite a difference in numbers from online to your lab.

ng/ml

I just looked back at my tests, and ours are done in nmol/L, but I just did a quick google conversion on mine.
Mine turned out to be 7.7ng/mL and the lab would have the normal luteal phase measure of: 4.08-33.96ng/mL or 13-103nmol/L.

Do according to my lab as well you fall within the "normal" range, however, it is probably on the lower side of normal. The crazy numbers of 34 and such would be expected in such things as pregnancy and not the norm, so maybe you could use a little progesterone support for your luteal phase? Have you tried a bioidentical cream?

My ob (specializes in infertility but is NOT a reproductive endocrinologist) likes the progesterone to be above 6 to indicate ovulation.

Thats what i read on google, which adds to the confusion

I googled a lot too, ended up deciding to go with what she said lol! I saw online that anything over 3 means you ovulated...but I don't have an MD behind my name
