Hi ladies,
I am back on clomid. Round 3. still at 100 mg. I am doing days 3-7 this time.

My question is this:

When should I start taking the Prometrium? Can I start now or should I wait until I finish the Clomid? Last cycle I had progesterone of 5.4 and it got up to only 9.4 (not good). So, I still have lots of the suppositories left. You think I should start them?? I forgot to ask them. Well I asked the nurse but I wasnt specific of when to start, and neither was she.

Well, here we go again...

I was told taking progesterone too early in the cycle can actually impede implantation and delay ovulation.
Most Doc's tell you to take it 3-4 days after your hcg shot. You don't want your progesterone level going too high in the beginning of the cycle or its ruined!

Hi! I'm on clomid (days 3-7) as well. My dr. told me to start the progesterone supposities no earlier than two days after ovulation has occurred. I ovulated on Saturday/Sunday and will begin the suppositories on Wed.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
