2/24/12 Update Additional Note

Well, I have some additional news. I got a phone call today while I was at work from the nurse saying that my progesterone results are back and my level was 6.4... the Dr. told me anything above a 10 is good. So guess what? Dr. is upping my Clomid dosage next  month to 100mg. More than likely I wouldn't have conceived this month :( bummer. That's ok we still have 3 months to try. I don't understand though why I showed all other signs of O, even my BBT's being elevated. Maybe I did ovulate, but either the egg sucked or I didn't ovulate "strong enough"... :(

What day did you have the blood test done after you think you ovulated? In the UK they wait 7 days to test the progesterone levels as apparently it takes 7 days for that to show up. I O\'d on day 21 and they would test on day 28. Hope this helps

I ovulated on like cd23-25 and they tested me on cd26, and I asked the nurse that... being it was only about 2 days after I ovulated, if it was accurate and she says it is ??? so idk.

That seems awful strange. My doc is doing mine on day 21 which is about 7 days after ovulation date. One would think that they would wait that long as well...

Yeah I was suppose to go 7dpo (cd21) but I ovulated late... I didn\'t want to test before I ovulated and then they would have said that I never ovulated! But anyways I just want to get this month behind me and move on to the next.
