So I just had my blood drawn this morning to check my progesterone levels. I think I'm between 5-7 before my next AF, I'm thinking I have a 29 day cycle. Before my m/c it was 29 days then after I got AF 30 days so not totally sure quite yet. So I am not sure how many dpo I am or if I even O'd this month. DH and I are technically waiting until after this cycle to TTC but I needed to find out my levels now so we can go from there. Sorry to sort of ramble on but I will update tomorrow with what I hear back from my midwife. My question is for those who have gotten progesterone levels checked what were they at about this time? Thanks!

I haven't specifically had my progesterone checked since my losses over the summer... so I'm no help at all, but there are many who have and might be able to give you a guideline their dr's used.

Well I got a call back from my midwife today and my levels were 6.4 which is a great number for this part of my cycle. So at least I won't have to be put on progesterone until I become preg again.

~I forgot to post in the first part that my levels right after my m/c were 1.4 so the 6.4 definitely an improvement.

I have always gotten my levels drawn on CD 23 & according to my dr, anything above a 12 is good, anything below indicates an O problem. Now I know you are supposed to & most people get their progesterone checked at about 7 days after O or + OPK (can't remember which... it's one of them). And I'm sure my RE will do it that way but my OB did things a little differently. HTHs!
