I had my yearly at the beginning of October and told my doctor about my spotting that I have 2-3 days before my period. She brushed it off like it was totally normal.
Well the more I research, I think I may have low progesterone. So I called the office last Friday and talked to a nurse, told her I am
TTC and that I was concerned that I have low progesterone. She said "Normally we don't do anything until you've been
TTC for one year." I said "I know but I am concerned about this and it can't hurt to get it tested." She said she would talk to my doctor on Tuesday when she was in and call me back. So this morning, the nurse calls me back. Her profound answer was "Well I talked to your Doctor and she told me to tell you to start using OPK's." I said "Well I have been using them for 3 or 4 months." She says "Are you getting a surge?" I told her I was and she says "Well then if you are ovulating then you have the proper hormone levels."
What the heck? Do they think I am STUPID?????? I mean come on how hard would it be to order one test for a concerned patient???? I am seriously considering finding a new OB which makes me sad because this doctor delivered both my girls. Mark my words if I get pregnant and then have a m/c I will be calling them and ripping them a new one!!!!! I am so mad!
