    Progesterone level - Could I be pregnant?
    I have been Trying to conceive for over a year (closer to 18 months & 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?

    Have you missed your period? Have you had negative pregnancy tests? My level was one and am 10wks late for my period!!

    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?

    Best of luck to you... It sounds optomistic! If not don't give up... Sounds good to me though.. Nicole LPN

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