I had a early m/c in July and another one in October, my specialist said if I have another one he will do a biopsy on my uterus to check the lining, my obgyn said if I have another one she will put me on progesterone, she thinks this is the problem. So dh and I are not trying at this point because I cant deal with another loss, but we did dtd once this cycle and it wasnt at the time I thought I would O, but the next day I had ewcm (which was pretty early for me) and now I checked my cervix about 2 days ago and it was very high and very soft (this happened the last 2 times I was pg) so I thought it was just high from Oing, but I checked again today and its still high and very soft and lots of creamy cm. Im not sure how many dpo I am, maybe around 5-6, so because of these changes I took my premetrium just to be on the safe side if I am pg, hoping it would give me a thicker lining and let the baby burrow in deeper. Anyone else have to take this to have a good pg? I read that stress can deplete the amount of progesterone in your body, and the last few months I have been under a huge amount of stress, so maybe this is the key. My ob said to take it about 2-4 days after ovulation, but im wondering of taking it 5-6 days past ovulation will help.

Yes, even 5-6 dpo is good! There are quite a few of us that take Progesterone for the same reason you are. I am sorry for your losses.

I took it during my first pregnancy- but it was routine with the RE. My peri wants me on it for the next one, but didn't say anything about starting it before I get a BFP.
Now wondering if I should get some cream to use just in case.

But I agree 5-6 days after should be good!

My RE said to start 3 days after Ovulation but anywhere after is still helpful. I have even been told I could wait until I got a BFP but the sooner the better he said.

Thank you all for responding, I know my Ob told me that I would need to take it 2-4 days after O, but since we were not ttc this cycle I didnt even think about me Oing. Now its been between 5 and 6 days since O and my cervix is still really high and soft, so Im thinking maybe we got the egg somehow this cycle. I know it seems early for my cervix to be showing any signs, but with my last 2 pg's this was my first sign shortly after O. I just figure if its meant to be it will be, this way I dont get too stressed out about everything. Its crazy because I pretty much gave up on the ttc thoughts, and dh and I only dtd once this cycle. Ill keep you all posted on what happens, maybe its just a wonky cycle due to my m/c in october...who knows.

I had a uterine biopsy done as well and was found not to have luteal phase defect, but I was put on progesterone anyway. They concluded later that my body would stop producing progesterone (or wouldn't increase progesterone production sufficiently...) AFTER I got pregnant! Weird, I know!
