Low progesterone

I just got back my cd 21 progesterone test and it came back 0.8 what does this mean? I had my first clomid on day 3-7 on 100g. I'm waiting for my next AF and the doctor has put me on 150g this time and on day 3-7 again.

Hey, I was wondering how your appt went.  I had my progesterone tested yesterday (8dpo) and my level was 16.  The only information I got was that I ovulated well.  So, I did some research & found the following info re: progesterone test taken 7dpo:

A progesterone test is done to confirm ovulation. When a follicle releases its egg, it becomes what is called a corpus luteum and produces progesterone. A level over 5 probably indicates some form of ovulation, but most doctors want to see a level over 10 on a natural cycle, and a level over 15 on a medicated cycle. There is no mid-luteal level that predicts pregnancy. Some say the test may be more accurate if done first thing in the morning after fasting.

Your level is low & is probably why your doctor moved you up to 150mg of clomid.  I hope that does the trick!  Good luck & hang in there !!! :)

It means you didn't ovulate.  Sorry it wasn't a better turn out.

sorry but does that mean I won't get AF?
