Hello ladies,

Got my progesterone level blood test today and my doc said that a level over 10 for non-medicated (no fertility drugs) and they like to see a level over 15 with clomid, or drug of same. I got my levels back from 7dpo (I took the test at 6dpo since the 7th day fell on a Saturday) my levels today were 35.6! I finished my 1st round of clomid this cycle, 100mg cd 4-8.

I've been having sore nipp's since 1dpo (getting worse everyday), mild and consistant cramping, dull one day and twinging the next, it last for hours all since 1dpo. I've had headaches on and off all week, had a tiny dot of pink blood on tp on 8dpo (chart took a nice dip and rose again next day). I am having positive signs here but wonder if the clomid can be the cause of some of it. I want to test soon but think I will wait until Saturday when af should arrive (10/25). I just don't want to test too early and get a - due to there not being enough HCG in my urine at only 10-11dpo. So with all this and high progest. level today I am wishful but cautious! I will see what temps do that rest of the week and I think I'll have a better indication of what's going on. Here's my chart if anyone cares to look and/or follow the next few days. I'll let ya all know "if" I do get my bfp this weekend, I'll post it for sure, in disbelief!

That's a great number! Average progesterone for the 4th week of pregnancy is 20 I think, and it goes to 40 soon I think. I'm not sure though. You can do an internet search on progesterone levels in pregnancy for that.

My progesterone at 11 DPO (and I'm preg) was 9.1 which was really scary!!

Good luck!

I hope your high numbers and lots of symptoms mean you're leading up to a BFP - and your chart is looking good! Good luck!

Those are great numbers!!

You have more patience than I do! (obviously)

I have a good feeling about this for you, Julie! I am not going to keep saying it because it isnt right to give false hope -

BUT!!! Your chart looks excellant and those numbers are EXCELLANT!!!

I have a feeling you will be posting your BFP this Saturday!

You know.....the FRE tests have 3 sticks in them - you could always use *one* of them today just to see if you get a line - and if you don't - NO biggie!! Because it is still early. ;)

BUT THEN AGAIN!!! --->I got mine at 8 DPO!!!! It *IS* possible for HSG to show early!

(I am living proof!) LOL



This morning I took another test and the line was nice and dark - yippeee :)

I have my dr appt Thursday - cant wait!

GOOD LUCK - (But I dont think you need it with levels that high!!)

(((HUGS))))

Thanks to everyone who posted back to me! Something is definately up, there is no doubt. I have had a migrane type headaache for two days now too and the twinging cramps have not stopped at all since 1dpo and they are more than ever now! My bb's are SO sore it's not even funny, mostly just the nipp area still but they are really, really sore to even put a bra on and some pain when trying to sleep on my stomach. Food is just not tasting right today either. Ok, so I lied, I am testing tomorrow night!! I work at a doc's office so they gave me on of the pg tests they give to patients and they they detect HCG better than EPT's (I have those at home now) and with the tests from the doc's, I can test any time of the day and not worry about using FMU! I will be posting soon hopefully if I get a line maybe on Thurs.....WISH ME LUCK, SCARED TO DEATH...

Thanks Stephanie for your kind words. I am feeling like it has to be pg, or I have the flu or something..LOL. I am so tired now, just like you said, I cannot stay awake a work and I go to the gym usually 4-5 days per week (personal trainer on the side), cannot go, too tired!! Thanks for all the positive vibes and I wish them all on you too!!!
