I have been TTC for over a year (closer to 18 mos & I have had one miscarriage), on Monday I had a progesterone level drawn to confirm I was ovulating (it was CD 21). I did not hear back from the MD within 24 hours as expected so I called yesterday at the close of business & was told that my results WERE back & the level was 30.8. According to my research this is outside of normal limits, and within first trimester range. Could I be pregnant?? I am concerned the MD or NP hasn't called me, other than pregnancy why would my level be so high? I am only on CD 23 today, I have a 27 day cycle. Debating to wait for the doctor to call today or go buy a home test....
Thoughts anyone?

I haven't missed a period yet, I am due to start in 3-4 days. I haven't taken a home test yet. I guess I am afraid of another disappointment. I suppose though being on day 24 of a 27 day cycle, its not too soon to take one! I will pick one up today. Maybe in the mean time I will hear back from the MD.

How do you know your level was 1? Didyou have it tested? Are they putting you on progesterone treatment?

Thanks, I am trying to be optimistic. Tough though, I am almost 41 & we don't have forever.
