I had a tubal reversal in May im 28 dh is 30, I have children from a previous marriage, dh has none. We got pg very quickly without trying in July and I got my bfp at 11 dpo, the pg test got darker every day until 15 dpo when they got lighter and then finally a bfn, I m/ced at 5 weeks 2 days. We decided to not ttc for awhile and then in October we used opks and at night on 10 dpo I got what I thought was an indent line on Answer test, but the next day it was more clear bfp, but it took the digi another 2 days to pick it up, my hcg at 14 dpo was 24, prog was 13.01, I was put on prometrium but 2 days later my hcg dropped to 11 and then I m/ced again. My specialist is not concerned yet unless I have 3 m/c and since they are so early hes not worried but said he will do a uterin biopsy if I have a third loss. My OB says she thinks its a progesterone issue and she wants me to use opks and then take prometrium 2 days after + opk until cd 28 and if I got a bfp, I stay on prometrium if I get bfn then I stop the meds. So this cycle, we only bd once and it wasnt near O but I felt odd so just incase I took the premetrium, and although I did not get pg I notice that when I quit the meds to let af start my cycle is so much iddfferent, I usually clot a lot and have very heavy bleeding, ( i have to wear a pad and tampon), this cycle I had 1 clot, the bleeding was a little heavy on day 1 and very light on day 2 and then today, day 3 its spotting. So i guess its the progesterone that I took this cycle working and fixing something? I read online about signs of low progesterone and I have a lot of those signs, like heavy af, clots, water retention, fibrocystic breast and so on.

So heres me questions, has anyone here taken progesterone after ovulation and had a successfull pg? Has anyone taken the meds and noticed good changes with af?
My cycles have always been bad, but after my tubal ligation they got worse.
I seem to ovulate just fine, but my dr sometimes talks about clomid, is it possible shes talking about clomid to try to get better egg quality? Any thoughts or experiences on this would be helpful, we are ttcing again this cycle with opk and progesterone. We plan on having dh sperm checked soon, but at this point all Drs. thinks its my uterus. This last loss we had in October was not the same as the one in July, the lines on the test were so much lighter, like it was a weak pg from the start, but the one in July seemed very strong until 15 dpo. Thanks in advance

I've never taken progesterone, but I wish you the best of luck in conceiving!

I ovulate on my own as well but my doctor put me on Clomid to increase egg quality & it was helping me release 2 eggs and that doubled my chances. My doctor just decided to put me on progesterone after having my level drawn yesterday and it being extremely low. I know there are some women who have taken it and had successful pregnancies. I'm not sure about the change in AF
