PROGESTERONE LEVEL

August 06, 2008

Hi this is my first try. I took Clomid 100mg Metformin 1000mg, HCG shot and vaginaly insert Progesterone supplements.

last Thursday I Had blood work done to check my Progesterone level it was 13. I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it was negative. this Thursday aug 7 i have to go in to check if i am pregnant. My doctor said since I am taken the supplements vaginally that it won’t show up in my blood. Even if the pregnancy test is negative is their a possibility that I can be pregnant? and fo rmy progestrone level being 13 is that good or bad?

that is a level that can sustain a pregnancy and means that you ovulated.

How many days past ovulation are you tho? If you are ready to get your period then thats why its a little on the lower side.

I had a level of over 100 one month and wasnt preggo so you can never tell if you are pregnant or not by your prog level.

well if i am not pregnant then this weekend i should be having my period. i started my period last month on the 8th.

when did you have the trigger - what day? On clomid you may have a shorter cycle - how many days are you cycles normally?

and sorry, by trigger i meant the HCG shot.

i had the HCG shop 2 weeks ago the July 24... i just checked my calendar i started my period on July 11th not the 8th.

I agree, if you are doing progesterone vaginally you should not see a high level in the blood. I think you can't make any judgement based on a progesterone level of 13 good or bad... which is good... as long as it is not less than 5 it is okay... good luck with your pregnancy test!!!

i took a home prego test and it came back neg... tomorrow i do the blood test.
